Alfred Stieglitz made this portrait of his eight-year-old daughter Katherine (Kitty) while on vacation in Europe. Kitty sits on a park bench, clutching a bouquet of vibrant purple blossoms in one hand and holding a butterfly net in the other. (quoted from source)

The subject of the photograph above is Stieglitz’s flamboyant youngest sister, Selma, wearing a Fortuny dress. Authorship of the image is uncertain: this plate was donated by Georgia O’Keeffe to the Metropolitan in 1955 as a work by Stieglitz; a nearly identical plate was donated to George Eastman House in 2001 by Edward Steichen’s widow as a work by her husband.

Ralph Lindequist Wilson autokrom

“Wilson’s autochrome photograph of a simple bouquet of hand-picked wildflowers in a ceramic vase is a delicate and beautiful example of a classic Still Life. The photograph is also a fine example of experimentation with the aesthetic expression: the bouquet is in sharp focus, but all other parts are blurred and more diffuse.” (quoted from source)
