Georgia O'Keeffe—Hand and Wheel 1933

Alfred Stieglitz's 1933 photograph "Georgia O'Keeffe—Hand and Wheel" features a close-up of O'Keeffe's hand resting on a car wheel. This intimate portrait captures the interplay of light and shadow, highlighting the curves of the hand and the wheel in a minimalist composition. Stieglitz was known for his innovative photographic techniques and his focus on capturing the essence of his subjects, as seen in this iconic image of his wife, the famous American artist Georgia O'Keeffe. This striking black and white photograph exemplifies the modernist art movement, emphasizing form and abstraction over traditional representational imagery.
