Edward Steichen, a young American painter and photographer, arrived in Paris in 1900 and by 1901, had managed not only to meet sculptor Auguste Rodin, widely regarded as the age’s most important artist, but also won his approval. Employing the principles of Pictorialist photography, which valued feeling and artistry over fact and detail, Steichen produced photographs of Rodin and his sculptures that are works of art in their own right.
