Eliot Porter


The Early Years

A Rapport with Nature


July 4th - August 22nd, 2025

Scheinbaum & Russek Ltd is pleased to present a very special collection of Eliot Porter’s vintage prints.  This collection encompasses his early work in black & white, his first efforts in color (1941), utilizing the wash-off relief process, a precursor to dye-transfer, as well as the dye-transfer process (from the late 1940s onward), the technique that Eliot employed and refined for the remainder of his life. This exhibition features vintage prints, in both black & white and in color, made by Eliot Porter.  Some of the rare images were included in Porter’s 1939 exhibition at Alfred Stieglitz’s gallery, An American Place.
