The Terminal (photograph) (original) (raw)
The Terminal is a black and white photograph taken by Alfred Stieglitz in 1893. The photograph was taken in New York using the small 4 x 5 camera, which was a more practical instrument to document the city life than the 8 x 10 view camera, who could only work with a tripod. The picture is devoid of any romantic intention, just depicting the driver watering his horses in front of the Astor House. Stieglitz work can be seen as an example of pictorialism and what would be called later straight photography.

| dbo:abstract | The Terminal is a black and white photograph taken by Alfred Stieglitz in 1893. The photograph was taken in New York using the small 4 x 5 camera, which was a more practical instrument to document the city life than the 8 x 10 view camera, who could only work with a tripod. This is one of the pictures that Stieglitz took using this medium, following his aim to elevate photography to an art status. Stieglitz described the origin of this picture: "From 1893 to 1895 I often walked the streets of New York downtown, near the East River, taking my hand camera with me... [One day] I found myself in front of the old Post Office... It was extremely cold. Snow lay on the ground. A driver in a rubber coat was watering his steaming car horses." The picture is devoid of any romantic intention, just depicting the driver watering his horses in front of the Astor House. Stieglitz work can be seen as an example of pictorialism and what would be called later straight photography. There are prints of this photograph at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, the National Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C., the Art Institute of Chicago and the J. Paul Getty Museum, in Los Angeles. (en) O Terminal é uma foto em preto e branco tirada por Alfred Stieglitz em 1893. A foto foi tirada em Nova York com a pequena câmera 4 x 5, que era um instrumento mais prático para documentar a vida na cidade do que a câmera 8 x 10, que só funcionava com um tripé. Esta é uma das fotos que Stieglitz tirou com este meio, seguindo seu objetivo de elevar a fotografia ao status de arte. Stieglitz descreveu a origem desta imagem: "De 1893 a 1895, muitas vezes caminhei pelas ruas do centro de Nova York, perto do East River, levando minha câmera fotográfica comigo. . . [Um dia] Eu me vi na frente do antigo Correio. . . Estava extremamente frio. A neve caiu no chão. Um motorista com um casaco de borracha estava dando água aos cavalos fumegantes de seus carros." A imagem é desprovida de qualquer intenção romântica, apenas retratando o motorista dando água aos cavalos em frente à Astor House. A obra de Stieglitz pode ser vista como um exemplo de pictorialismo e do que mais tarde seria chamado de fotografia pura. Existem cópias desta fotografia no Metropolitan Museum of Art de Nova York, na National Gallery of Art, Washington, DC, no Art Institute of Chicago e no J. Paul Getty Museum, em Los Angeles. (pt) |
