Poplar—Lake George 1937

"Poplar—Lake George" is a 1937 photograph by Alfred Stieglitz, a key figure in the development of modern photography in the United States. The image features a lone poplar tree, its branches bent and twisted by the wind, set against a backdrop of rolling hills and a glimpse of Lake George. The photograph captures the essence of nature's raw power and Stieglitz's signature focus on form and composition. Stieglitz's keen eye for detail and his ability to convey a sense of movement and energy through his photography make "Poplar—Lake George" a powerful and evocative image.
