“If you look the right way, you can see the whole world is a garden"
~ Frances Hodgson Burnett
(1849-1924)
William B. Post was one of the great turn of the century pictorialist photographers. His great advocate was no less than the legendary Alfred Stieglitz who revered his photographic accomplishments and promoted him when and wherever he could. Stieglitz invited him to become a member of his Photo Secession group. He was a master practitioner of the platinum print process and this exquisite print is absolutely beautiful in person.
