Winter on Fifth Avenue Possibly 1893 - 1932

"Winter on Fifth Avenue" is a photograph by Alfred Stieglitz, a leading figure in the Pictorialist movement. Taken sometime between 1893 and 1932, the image captures a snow-covered Fifth Avenue in New York City, with a horse-drawn carriage moving through the street. The photograph's stark composition, with its emphasis on the snowy landscape, evokes a sense of quietude and isolation, typical of Stieglitz's approach to urban photography. The photograph's use of soft focus and tonal contrast further adds to its evocative nature, reflecting the Pictorialist movement's aim to elevate photography as a fine art.
