EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Man seated table book" was taken by the talented American photographer Gertrude Kasebier in New York City between 1896 and 1898. The image showcases a man sitting at a table, engrossed in reading a book. Kasebier's masterful use of platinum print brings out the intricate details and textures of the scene. The composition is simple yet evocative, with the subject's intense focus on his reading material drawing us into his world. The play of light and shadow adds depth to the image, highlighting the contours of his face and hands as well as emphasizing the texture of the table surface. Kasebier was renowned for her ability to capture intimate moments that reveal deep emotions within her subjects. In this particular photograph, she invites us to contemplate themes such as solitude, introspection, and intellectual curiosity. Measuring approximately 16.8 x 12.3 cm (6 5/8 x 4 13/16 inches), this platinum print exemplifies Kasebier's mastery of her craft during this period in history when photography was still an emerging art form. Whether displayed in a gallery or cherished within a private collection, this remarkable piece serves as both a testament to Gertrude Kasebier's artistic brilliance and an enduring snapshot of life at the turn of the century in New York City.
