That is nice to hear. I believe a few of the portraits at that link aren’t actually Kasebier’s. Here’s another group which seem to be correctly attributed:
This breathtaking image feels like a timeless lament. I had to look up Kasebier – I’m familiar with some of her photographs but hadn’t remembered her name. Using this title for an image that doesn’t feature people or women but instead has the haunting feeling of a place untouched for decades is brilliant.
That IS thrilling – thanks for the link. That light! The way it falls on her dress, the shadows spreading across the lawn, her head in deep shade. It gets across the essence of a summer day but it’s more than that. I love that she’s sketching.
Beautiful. Looks like a painting. Great image of some survivors in the beleaguered pine barrens on going
struggle to ward off the ravages wrought by the pine bark beetle. Here they stand tall and determined amidst the carnage.

My critique can’t come close to explaining the beauty of this picture. It’s Holland in the early nineteenth century. Mesmerizing.

Appreciate your comments on both these pieces today, Käsebier’s platinum print treatment for “The Sketch” thrills me every time:
