Dr. Anthony Bannon, Director of George Eastman House International Museum of Photography and Film discusses the previously unknown autochromes made by Edward J. Steichen in 1908.
"For me, these two are the capstone autochromes. So brilliantly luminous still to this day since they've been stored in a closet shortly after they were made in 1908," Dr. Bannon says. He shares with us the surprising and delightful story of the museum's acquisition of the two glass plate images, made by the photographer who brought the autochrome process to the United States in 1908 from France.
Edward Steichen, described by Dr. Bannon as a "paragon of virtue in photography," served as a founding influence for the George Eastman House International Museum of Photography and Film and remained a figure until his death in 1981.
