The Artwork
About This Print
Imogen Cunningham print comes from 1934 — the period when Cunningham was a founding member of Group f/64 alongside Ansel Adams and Edward Weston, committed to sharp-focus, large-format photography that treated the natural world as worthy of the most precise visual attention. North Coast Native print places a human figure within the coastal landscape of the American Northwest and finds complete formal harmony between the two. This Imogen Cunningham print is fine art nude photography made without the studio’s artificiality — black and white portrait of a person as much at home in the landscape as the rocks and water around them.
Cunningham’s approach to the figure — botanical, precise, and without prurience — was decades ahead of its time, and this vintage American print belongs to the body of work that established her legacy as one of the great photographers of the 20th century.
