Description:
From Camera Work no. 20, 1907; tipped to the original
page. George Seeley first received attention as a
photographer in 1904 a the First American Salon, when
Alvin Langdon Coburn, one of the judges, introduced
him to Alfred Stieglistz. A Photogravure is a hand-
pulled print, similar to an etching, struck from a
photoengraved plate that has been made either from
the photographer’s original negative or from a print.
“Camera Work” was the journal of pictorialism and the
vanguard of America modernism. There were 50
numbers of the magazine published by Alfred Stieglitz
between 1903 and 1917. Stieglitz personally inspected
each gravure in each magazine before the issue was
sent. At the height of the magazine’s circulation, about
1000 copies were printed; at times of lower circulation,
only about 250 copies were printed. Of these, far fewer
remain extant, making the gravures collectible.
