Web Assignment #4

1. Who was Alfred Stieglitz and why is he noteworthy in the history of photography?]
He was an American photographer who was instrumental for making photography a form of art.
2. Choose a photograph he made, upload it to your blog, and explain why you chose it as your favorite by him.
This is my favorite picture he's taken because I love the way the water reflects the buildings and the sky. It also gives off a homey vibe that makes me think I'm coming home to eat some pasta with my family. 

3. With what famous painter was he in a relationship? Who was she?  Upload a painting by her that you like.
Extra: How did they influence each other in their art making?
Georgia O'keeffe was one of the first female painters of her time.
I chose this photo because I like the water the colors melt together but stand on their own.
