Alfred Stieglitz (January 1, 1864 – July 13, 1946) was an American photographer and modern art promoter who was instrumental over his fifty-year career in making photography an accepted art form. In addition to his photography, Stieglitz is known for the New York art galleries that he ran in the early part of the 20th century, where he introduced many avant-garde European artists to the U.S. He was married to painter Georgia O'Keeffe .

ART SUNDAY--SANDRO BOTTICELLI--
HI ALL HOPE EVERYONE IS HAVING A WONDERFUL SUNDAY AND YOUR WEATHER IS GREAT TODAY I DO ONE OF MY MOST FAVORITE MASTERS ENJOY
Alessandro di Mariano di Vanni Filipepi , better known as Sandro Botticelli (Italian: [ˈsandro bottiˈtʃɛlli] ; c. 1445[ 1] – May 17, 1510), was an Italian painter of the Early Renaissance . He belonged to the Florentine school under the patronage of Lorenzo de' Medici , a movement that Giorgio Vasari would characterize less than a hundred years later as a "golden age ", a thought, suitably enough, he expressed at the head of his Vita
of Botticelli. Botticelli's posthumous reputation suffered until the
late 19th century; since then his work has been seen to represent the
linear grace of Early Renaissance painting. Among his best known works
are The Birth of Venus and Primavera .
