Item description from seller

Large quarto. Ribbon-tied black cloth boards titled in gilt on the front board. Two book labels of Eickemeyer on the front pastedown. Covers a bit worn, the ties appear to be replaced, very good; internally about fine. Contains 55 gelatin silver prints (although the quality of the images is so fine that they could be mistaken for platinum prints), each is 5½" x 3½", 13 of them have been captioned in ink by Eickemeyer. Eickemeyer's own album of his trip to California, with a handwritten note "Unfinished" on front pastedown. Perhaps Eickemeyer planned a second album (as the "I" on the front board might indicate), but it is unclear if he ever finished it; we could find no record of a second volume. A beautifully composed album which offers a personal glimpse into the famous photographer's methodology. According to a label on the inside, the Smithsonian obtained all of Eickemeyer's best-known photographs in 1929 (presumably displaying them, as evidenced here), this album was created after his February trip to the far West. The album, created by Eickemeyer in his last years, begins with a few images of Washington, DC including a captioned view of the installation of Eickemeyer's photography at the Smithsonian, followed by a handful of views of New Orleans. Although the album is titled *Our Trip to California*, the rest of the album is devoted almost solely to striking views, mostly landscapes, of the Canyonlands area including shots of the stark Arizona desert, the Grand Canyon, and various images of the pueblo-dwelling Native Americans. We can speculate that if indeed the second album was ever created (Eickemeyer died in 1932), the presumed Volume II would have housed the California images from the trip. Eickemeyer, born in Yonkers, New York, was an American pictorialist photographer, a member of the New York Camera Club, and along with Alfred Stieglitz, one of the first two Americans admitted to "The Brotherhood of the Linked Ring," an English group devoted to photography as a fine art. His photographs appeared in *Camera Work*, and he won numerous international medals for his work. A superb personal album by a famous photographer, featuring striking views of the Canyonlands. Unique.
