Imogen Cunningham

Description:

Imogen Cunningham (1883-1976) was one of photography's early pioneers, a Seattle-born virtuoso whose brilliant portraits and still lifes helped establish the medium as an art form. This book, the companion to Imogen Cunningham: Flora (1996), collects the best of Cunningham's portrait work - over 200 images, more than half of which have never before been published. In an illustrated essay accompanying the plates, Richard Lorenz discusses Cunningham's approach to portraiture, influences on her work, and comparable work by other important photographers. A chronology of Cunningham's life and a selected bibliography are included.
