| Notes | Piitsford, Massachusetts, 11 x 7¾ incheas, 27 halftone illustrations. The elegantly designed exhibition catalog is the only monograph on Seeley. Professor William Innes Homer provides a short essay on the rediscovery of Seeley's work, Dimlock writes the general overview on his photographs, and Hardy contributes information on the printing techniques the photographer preferred - platiunum and gum-bichromate. The reproductions, printed in different monochrome values, concentrate on his ethereal landscapes and figure studies. George H. Seeley (1880-1955) was a Massachusetts pictorialist who joined Stieglitz's Photo-Secession at a young age. He was particularly adept at making large-scale prints, which were seen in many Secession group exhibitions and a solo show at 291 in 1908. Eighteen of his images appeared as photogravures in "Camera Work", in 1906 and 1907, making him one of the best represented photographers in the magazine. Fine Condition. |
