Heading: Author: White, Clarence Title: Nude, 1908 Place Published: New York Publisher:Camera Work Date Published: 1908 Description: Vintage photogravure on heavy stock tipped to hand-made sheet which is in turn tipped to backing sheet. Image: 16x18 cm (6¼x7"); mounted on sheet: 30x21 cm (12x8¼").Photogravure from Camera Work, issue 23. "Clarence H. White (1871-1925) played leading roles in pictorial photography both during and after the heyday of the Photo-Secession. Stieglitz made his work highly visible in Secession exhibitions and publications. White also became widely known as a photographic instructor, teaching at both the school he established and elsewhere...The subject matter and the subtle tones of his platinum prints reflected the photographer's gentle, mid-western nature. White's photographic output was tempered by his teaching responsibilities, but his later pictures, made after World War I, show an awakening to cubist ideas." After the Photo-Secession by Christian A. Peterson, pp. 208-09.
