Songs of the Sky XX2 or Equivalent XX2 c. 1923 - 1929

"Songs of the Sky XX2 or Equivalent XX2" is a striking black and white photograph created by American photographer Alfred Stieglitz between 1923 and 1929. Stieglitz, a pioneer of modern photography, was known for his abstract and evocative depictions of nature. This photo, featuring dramatic clouds, is a perfect example of his approach, showcasing the beauty and power of light and shadow in the natural world. The photo's title suggests a connection to the ethereal, a "song" sung by the clouds themselves, a concept that would have resonated with Stieglitz's artistic philosophy.
