Alfred Stieglitz changed the game for photography, advocating for it as more than a tool for documenting history, and instead as an artistic medium alongside painting and sculpture. He did so quite successfully, eventually becoming one of the first photographers collected by American art museums. While a leader of the Pictorialists—a movement to promote photography to a higher art form and often characterized by dramatic editing and elaborate retouching—Stieglitz forged his own individual path of stylistic manipulation through natural effects such as snow, steam, rain, and light rather than manual darkroom editing. His objective was to blur the lines between imagination and realism, to translate a complete life experience effectively into a photograph: the scent of fresh rain, the sound of a light breeze rustling through the branches. He brings emotion into his artwork, and we feed off of that.
