Pieces are generally available frameless or in a precision-made, hand-finished frame, mounted under museum-grade glass. Our curators work with artists to determine the best framing and mounting options. They are then mounted onto aluminum Dibond, a high-end aluminum composite specifically designed for artworks. Our thought-provoking photographs are produced as limited-edition prints, using a combination of traditional and cutting-edge photo development techniques.

Along with other photographic artists like Ansel Adams and Edward Steichen, Stieglitz brought photography into its own as a fine art genre.

His haunting portrait series of Georgia O'Keeffe, which drew attention to her hands, is today one of the most recognizable landmarks in the history of photography as a fine art. In the United States, the photographer and publicist Alfred Stieglitz capitalized on the young medium. The implications of this new paradigm - famously identified by the philosopher Walter Benjamin, who called attention to the decline of uniqueness as the flagship indicator of an artwork's value and meaning - reverberated throughout the arts. Together with the rise of lithography and other types of art prints, fine art photography prints contributed to a new climate of cultural production, in which reproduction was the watchword. It was also massively influential in another sense. Photography became an established medium in contemporary art. From the early 20th century onwards, photography began to develop into an avant-garde art form, including playing a huge role in the emerging technique of collage art, which combined photographs with drawings, objects, and painting.
