Georgia O'Keeffe 1922

This 1922 photograph by Alfred Stieglitz is a portrait of his wife, the renowned artist Georgia O'Keeffe. The image captures O'Keeffe's intense gaze and the subtle play of light and shadow on her face. Stieglitz, a pioneer of modern photography, was known for his artistic portraits, often capturing his subjects in intimate and revealing ways. The composition, with O'Keeffe's face partially obscured by a hat and her clothing, creates a sense of mystery and depth, reflecting Stieglitz's interest in exploring the emotional and psychological dimensions of his subjects. This photograph, now housed at the Art Institute of Chicago, is a powerful example of Stieglitz's mastery of the photographic medium.
