Foursome: Alfred Stieglitz, Georgia O’Keefe, Paul Strand, Rebecca Salsbury (2019), by Carolyn Burke

Extensive. Detailed. Probing. Complex.  That’s the book (my rating: four out of five f-stops). The artists? Full of themselves, but maybe justified by the enormity of their talent (well, certainly O’Keefe, probably Stieglitz, not sure about the other two). I was in the presence of an O’Keefe at the DeYoung years ago - stunning (a flower, of course). Don’t know if I’ve seen anything by the others, but an original Stieglitz would be worth the effort.
