About This Item
New York: Harper & Brothers Publishers, 1954. American photographer Nell Dorr experimented with a range of photographic techniques including the photogram, macrophotography, negative retouching, and alternative printing processes. During the Second World War, Dorr took up residence in New Hampshire with her daughters and grandchildren whom she photographed extensively. The resultant images were complied in Mother and Child, the exhibition and publication of which was prompted by her grief over the death of her daughter, Elizabeth. The work was featured in MoMA's 1955 world-touring exhibition The Family of Man, for which four of her images were selected by Edward Steichen.
