This guy, Steichen, was basically the OG of turning pictures into highbrow masterpieces. He practically sprinkled fairy dust on snapshots and turned them into art. Alfred Stieglitz, the godfather of photography, practically had Steichen's photos on his bedroom walls. LeBron of photography, no less💪 Find out more at www.bourgmeisterin.com!
