Bruce Katsiff and Thomas Shillea: Masters of the Platinum Print
Monsoon Gallery
November 4 – November 30
In the early days of photography, the platinum print was everywhere. Photographers in the 19th century created platinotypes, as did early 20th century masters such as Alfred Stieglitz, who prized the printing method for its velvety tones and unrivaled beauty. However platinum printing eventually gave way to less expensive, but sadly less beautiful methods.
