I am in two minds about the #Pictorialists. They blurred resolution and thus reduced hard information. But they were also technical masters and took endless trouble to create the right contrast and tonality, which enhances information in another dimension. #Stieglitz photographing car horses on a snowy day is documentary photography in disguise. The pages of Stiglitz's "Camera Work" magazine show #StraightPhotography emerging from the Pictorialists: FH Evans, Strand.
