EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, we are transported back in time to the early 20th century. The image features John Steel (1895-1971), an esteemed American tenor known for his powerful voice and charismatic stage presence. Clad in a stylish coat and hat, Steel stands tall amidst a serene forest backdrop. What makes this portrait particularly intriguing is the addition of a camera held firmly in Steel's hands. It offers us a glimpse into his multifaceted personality as he showcases not only his musical talent but also his passion for photography. This unexpected combination highlights the artistic versatility that defined Steel's career. Taken around 1912, during an era when photography was still evolving as an art form, this snapshot captures both the essence of its subject and the spirit of the times. The Granger Collection has expertly preserved this piece of history, allowing us to appreciate not only Steel's contribution to music but also his fascination with capturing moments through the lens. This print serves as a reminder that behind every great artist lies hidden depths waiting to be explored. Whether on stage or behind a camera, John Steel left an indelible mark on both worlds - one that continues to inspire generations today.
