Georgia O'Keeffe—Hands 1917

Alfred Stieglitz's 1917 photograph "Georgia O'Keeffe—Hands" is a striking example of Pictorialism. The image focuses on the hands of the artist Georgia O'Keeffe, who was Stieglitz's wife and muse. Stieglitz masterfully captures the delicate curves and textures of O'Keeffe's hands, highlighting their beauty and sensuality. The composition, with the hands positioned at the center, creates a sense of intimacy and draws the viewer's gaze to the subject's delicate touch. This work, created using a soft-focus technique, reflects Stieglitz's artistic vision and his fascination with the beauty of the human form.
