N.B. Inspired by the photographer Gertrude Käsebier, Imogen Cunningham began making photographs at the turn of the twentieth century and had a storied career that spanned a large swath of the history of photography. Her early works focused on allegorical studies styled in a Pictorialist manner that included many of the artists in her circle. Best known for highly detailed botanical studies in the 1920s, Cunningham turned to Modernism and was a founding member of Group f/64, an association of West Coast photographers that embraced the mechanical characteristics of the camera. Impossible to pigeonhole, she continued to evolve her photographic practice. In the 1930s Cunningham produced intimate portraits of artists for Vanity Fair and in the 50s she turned to street photography. Self-portraiture was present throughout the entirety of her career, and she continued to photograph into her 90s.Condition
