This is issue #22 of the seminal quarterly art photography publication edited and published by pioneering photographer Alfred Stieglitz (1864-1946). It contains a total of 3 beautiful color photographic plates (autochromes) by acclaimed photographer Eduard Steichen (1879-1973). Also included are various essays and articles on photography and aesthetic theory from a number of notable and historically important contributors to the field, including photographers and art critics, many of whom were members of or associated with the Photo-Secession. The images included here are: "G. Bernard Shaw", "On the House-boat - The Log Cabin" and "Portrait - Lady H." All are reproduced in high quality offset printing (four-color reproductions) on heavy stock paper, tipped-in onto the full-page plates. The printing of the plates are credited to the German photography firm Bruckmann, in Munich. These images and their reproductions are both considered quite early examples of both taking and reproducing color photographs for the general public. The pioneering Lumiere brothers had first patented their early color photographic process known as Autochrome Lumière (using the principle of additive color), in 1903, and at the time of this publication, the process had only been on the market for a year (first marketed in 1907). Text content includes a comparatively lengthy article on color photography by Eduard Steichen himself, an article discussing Stieglitz recent expulsion from the The Camera Club of New York (including a reproduction of text of the letters sent to Stieglitz), "Rumpus in A Hen House" by art critic Charles H. Caffin (1854 -1918), and reviews of Auguste Rodin drawings at 291, among other articles. The final 16 un-numbered pages contain beautifully printed period advertisements for photography-related businesses, including a relevant advertisement for Autochrome Lumière. Binding with minor rubbing and bumping to corners, light smudges to the covers. Minor creases to the top right corner of the front cover. Spine sunned with light scratches and some light rubbing to the head and tail. Interior with starting at the list of plates and p.14. Sporadic light foxing and/or damp staining to the edges and margins of some pages as well some of the initial leaves, including the interior covers, front free endpapers and the title.

Wrappers are clean, with only very light wear; the hinges are firm, and there is no creasing or darkening of the spines. Overall both issues are in near fine, and extremely scarce thus. First (only) editions of thefinaltwo issues of Alfred Stieglitz's monumental photographic periodical,Camera Work, including, in number 48, the earliest appearance in print of the work of Paul Strand, and in number 50, an issue entirely dedicated to the work of Strand. Limited to 500 copies printed. "Theworkof Paul Strand was the first photography to excite Stieglitz in a long time. He saw Strand as practicing a truly photographic version of the kindof forceful representation he found in painters like Picasso and Matisse, and he presented Strand'sworkas a clean break, even changing the time-testedproduction methods ofCameraWork, Strand's photogravures were printed on thicker paper and with different inks." - Roth 101, pp. 42-43. Issue No. 48 includes six photographs by Strand, six halftones by Steiglitz of installations at his gallery 291, and single photographs by Frank Eugene, Arthur Allen Lewis and Francis Bruguiere. Issue No. 49/50 includes eleven original photogravures, all after work by Strand, among them "The White Fence", "Abstraction Porch Shadows", and "Abstraction Bowls".One cannot overestimate the importance of these two issues of Camera Work. As Milton Brown has noted, the appearance of Strand's portrait series herein "was a revelation. Even today they are strikingly powerful images; they were then a new stage in photographic realism. The close-up views and cropping of negatives cut off the subjects from their environment, sometimes even breaking the frame and riveting attention entirely on the physiognomic and psychological revelation of individuality, character, and social condition. . . . Strand's experiments with abstraction and the machine were his unwitting contribution to the history of photography: the portraits, basic to the rest of his development, are the first clear expression of his own aesthetic philosophy." - Milton W. Brown, "The Three Roads", in Paul Strand: Essays on His Life and Work. Edited by Maren Stange. (Aperture, 1990), p. 29. Although not noted in the volumes, these two issues of Camera Work came from the collection of James Johnson Sweeney, at various times the Curator of Painting and Sculpture at MOMA, the second Director of the Guggenheim Museum, and the Director of the Museum of Fine Arts Houston.

Kerfoot: Kerfoot was an associate editor and a major contributor to Camera Work. "Next to Hartmann, the most frequent contributors in the magazine's first two pioneering years were Caffin, proofreader Dallett Fuguet, and columnist J.B. Kerfoot" (Sadarichi Hartmann, The Valiant Knights of Daguerre: Selected Critical Essays on Photography and Profiles of Photographic Pioneers). Kerfoot was an important figure in Stieglitz's career. In addition to being an important early collaborator, he later played a key role in helping Stieglitz obtain financial backing for Stieglitz's famed Gallery 291. "Before opening the gallery I called in my friend, J.B. Kerfoot, a literary critic of Life, when the original Life was still in its hey-day. I hadn't a cent of my own. My little capital I had blown in on the Photo-Secession and Camera Work and the like. I told Kerfoot I'd like to have a fund of twelve hundred dollars, five hundred to pay the rent, seven hundred dollars for light and printing and other overheard. So he invited George D. Pratt of the Standard Oil, who was interested in photography, and Herbert G. French, treasurer of Proctor and Gamble, who was a member of the Photo-Secession., his brother-in-law, Hunter, a collector of rare Japanese prints and early American glass, a wealthy man, married but without children, and, naturally, Haviland and one or two other people. It was all very impromptu and unofficial." (Alfred Stieglitz, Civil Liberties and the Arts: Selections from Twice a Year, 1938-48).

He then worked as an associate editor for Camera Work, Stieglitz's new quarterly, from its first issue, in January 1903, through April 1910.
