Alfred Stieglitz was a New Jersey-born photographer who espoused a belief in the aesthetic potential of photography in early 20th century America. Autochrome was a photographic transparency film patented by the Lumiére brothers in 1903. The process initially recorded images as standard black and white and then reconfigured them into color using filters.
