Stirling Calder

Stirling Calder is an artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

Stirling Calder made early 20th-century photographs that preserve quiet moments in bronze and stone. You can see one of his untitled prints in this set, caught in the first decades of the 1900s. His lens lingers on sculpted surfaces, letting the play of light bring out the curves and edges of public monuments. Tap Untitled to step closer to Calder’s way of framing three-dimensional forms on a two-dimensional plate.
