OT Re: Steichen_ "One of his best-known portraits in this period was of the great capitalist J P Morgan. Use of the gum process, together with high contrast lighting led to a powerful effect. Morgan sits on a chair, facing the photographer squarely. Virtually all of his dark suit merges into the dark background, leaving his face with it's piercing eyes staring intensely out. The lighting falling at an angle across his hand and on the arm of the chair produces a sunlight shape that can only be seen as a dagger in his grip, grasped and menacing. Also emerging from the dark background are Morgan's white business collar and his watch chain - clearly symbolising the industrial process by which human labour was combined and synchronised to the clock."
