A piercing gaze across the centuries - I've cleaned-up this striking autochrome portrait of a young lady, taken 109 years ago, during the Great War. It's an autochrome study by American photographer Alfred Stieglitz of his 17-year-old daughter Kitty in 1915. It was taken in colour and is not colourised. Kitty - properly Katherine Stieglitz (1898-1971) - married in 1922 and had a son, Milton, the next year. However, her story is a tragic one - within days of his birth, Kitty suffered post natal depression and was institutionalised in a privately owned psychiatric hospital. She was kept an inmate for 48 years until hear death in 1971.
