This photograph, taken in Italy in 1894 and also known as The White Friars, is an early example of stop-movement photography made by Annan with a hand-held camera. This plate is a slight variant crop on one made by Annan and reproduced as Plate #2 in the book by Weston Naef (1978) The Collection of Alfred Stieglitz: Fifty Pioneers of Modern Photography (The Metropolitan Museum of Art / The Viking Press) That version shows the entire shadow cast on ground in lower right and more detail in the print.
Annan, a contemporary of Stieglitz and important influence on him, was not only a gifted photographer but also a publisher who made his own copper plates for printing photogravures for himself and the family firm: T & R Annan & Sons. Today, the Annan family is still in business- operating The Annan Gallery (a fine art dealer gallery) at 164 Woodlands Road in Glasgow.
