Comment(s): Coburn was one of a key group of photographers whose work redirected the aesthetics of 19th-century pictorialism towards the realm of 20th-century avant-garde practice. He was introduced to photography by his distant cousin, the prominent pictorialist Fred Holland Day, in 1898. Within the next five years he had become a central figure in the circles of artistic photography, and was invited to join both the Photo-Secessionists in New York and The Linked Ring Brotherhood in London – groups which included the most artistically progressive photographers of international pictorialism.
