The Heights c. 1930s

"The Heights" is a photographic print made by American photographer Wayne Albee, circa the 1930s. The photograph depicts three women in white flowing dresses, walking through a mountainous landscape. The setting is likely the Cascade Mountains, as the prominent, snow-capped peak in the background evokes Mount Rainier. The image is reminiscent of Pictorialism, a photographic movement of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, characterized by soft focus and romantic subject matter. The women's graceful movement and the ethereal beauty of the natural environment contribute to the work's romantic and dreamy feel. "The Heights" is currently in the collection of the Minneapolis Institute of Art.
