“Which of my photographs is my favorite? The one I’m going to take tomorrow.” — Imogen Cunningham Imogen Cunningham (1883–1976) was a trailblazing photographer whose career spanned over seven decades, leaving an indelible mark on the art of photography.

Our April 5 Photographs sale is highlighted by Johan Hagemeyer's "Magnolia Blossom" from 1925.

Hagemeyer began his working life as a fruit farmer until an introduction to Anne Brigman by Alfred Stieglitz in 1916 prompted him to change direction and open his first portrait studio in Berkeley, California and, the following year, another in Carmel. Other local art-photographers such as Imogen Cunningham, Tina Modotti, and Edward Weston became close friends and mentors. However, despite Weston's influence, Hagemeyer chose not to join the influential Group f.64, whose common goal was to create works that were sharply defined, carefully framed and promoted a new Modernist aesthetic in the American west. Hagemeyer continued to go his own way. creating and exhibiting his very particular elegant Pictorialist photographs until illness and financial problems overcame him.
