Justifiably famous for his iconic work like "The Flatiron", Steichen 1879 - 1973 was incredibly prolific. I suppose because photographic technology was rapidly evolving early in his career, there is alot of variability in his early pictures. It's rare in my opinion to find a modern day artist who's work is so consistently excellent in so many styles. I was going to pick one of his more famous photo's like "Pond- Moonlight" which sold recently for 2.9 Million. But then I saw the photo below called "The Blue Sky". The photo is of Dana Desboro Glover a young actress, in 1923, the year she and Steichen were married. There is so much raw affection in the way it's composed. I guess today it would be considered trite or cliche, but I find it touching. Here are a few links if you want to see & learn more.
