My Friends Lunch Bunch pick, June 2009. Lots to talk about from the aerial photography of WWI and the pilots, observers, and interpreters to marriage and freedom as seen by Rodin, Steichen and Stieglitz. Court case brought by Clara against Marion is a fascinating period piece, and what about lying under oath. Book is only the short period of time from Steichen's marriage through 1920. Great fame was to come with his later work (died in 1973). He destroyed his early paintings to concentrate on photography. Search for beauty with camera, after war changes his view of beauty. A colleague is going to do book with her group. Beautiful prose. Lot of research went into this work. ( )
