The Photographs
In the autumn of 2008, Steichen's widow, Joanna Taub Steichen, disclosed to Howard Greenberg the existence of an envelope containing the earliest specimens of Steichen's modernist work -
prints that had not been seen for almost a century.
"An astonishing bouquet of experiments in toning and multiple-printing processes,"
Greenberg calls them in his introduction, "works of intellectually ambiguous abstraction -
hypotheses on sensitized paper."
