Edward Steichen was known for over half a century as an innovator and prime mover in his work. His work is known for being bold, with a wide use of formal experiments, his brilliant portraits (as seen in some of the above photographs) and his heroic documentary projects.
Taking Photographs in the war showed a new appreciation of beauty, force of factual and unmanipulated photography. His work gained more of an abstract quality, which then contributed to more rigorous muscle sense of form photographs.
Edward was an inspiring artist and accomplished photographer, his styles was soft focus, self consciously which then distinguished him form other snap shooters and studios. Photographer - Robert Runyon
