Fine Photographs
We are excited to present A Singular History of Photography: 100 Works from the Stephen White Collection in our spring Fine Photographs auction. This dynamic sale tells the history of the medium through White?s distinct perspective, one honed through decades in the business collecting and selling, and as many years living with, studying, and loving photographs.
Beginning with early prints describing the excitement around the invention of capturing and fixing an image, and continuing through the early decades of experimentation with process and expression, the first part of the sale describes a heady period of discovery and exploration of various possibilities of representation.
