This 1933 photograph by Alfred Stieglitz depicts the hands of Georgia O’Keeffe, his wife and muse. The close-up, intimate composition highlights the detail of O’Keeffe’s hands, focusing on the texture and form of her skin. The image is a study in light and shadow, and it showcases Stieglitz's mastery of the photographic medium. The piece demonstrates Stieglitz's enduring commitment to capturing the essence of his subjects. "Georgia O'Keeffe, Hands," which is currently in the collection of the Art Institute of Chicago, is a powerful example of Stieglitz’s photographic style, known as Pictorialism.
