Georgia O'Keeffe c. 1919

This photogravure, created in 1919 by Alfred Stieglitz, depicts the artist's wife and muse, Georgia O'Keeffe. The photo captures her in a contemplative pose, emphasizing her delicate features and the graceful curves of her hands. Stieglitz was a leading figure in the Pictorialist movement, which sought to elevate photography to the level of fine art. This portrait exemplifies the movement's aesthetic, using soft focus and tonal range to create a sense of intimacy and emotional depth.
