Edward Steichen was already a famous painter and photographer in America and abroad when, in early 1923, he was offered the most prestigious position in photography’s commercial domain: that of chief photographer for Vogue and Vanity Fair.
Over the next fifteen years, Steichen would produce a body of work of unequaled brilliance, dramatizing and glamorizing contemporary culture.Edward Steichen in High Fashion
I love Edward Steichen's work. It's magnificent. I believe I saw some at the NGV when they were featuring work from the circle of Alfred Stieglitz.
