Katherine Dudley
As proprietor of the Little Galleries of the Photo-Secession and publisher of the photographic journals Camera Notes and, later, Camera Work, Stieglitz was a major force in the promotion and elevation of photography as a fine art in America in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. His own photographs had an equally revolutionary impact on the advancement of the medium. Here he angled his camera down at the dancing legs and swinging skirt of Katherine Dudley, capturing her graceful action in the soft tonalities of this exquisite print.
