Camera
Work was an elegant and costly magazine containing
beautiful photographs edited and published by the master
photographer Alfred Stieglitz
(1864-1946) from 1903 until 1917.
Stieglitz had earlier edited
Camera Notes, but left the
Camera Club of New York and founded
Photo-Secession in 1902.
The journal should not in anyway
be confused with Camerawork published in 1984.
The
magazine displayed work by many of the best photographers of the
day.
In 1912 it published some of the very first
color photos.
They had been made using
the autochrome process which had
been invented only five years earlier by the
Lumiere brothers in France.
