I just returned from a brief holiday to New York City, where I viewed photo exhibits at The Whitney Museum of Modern American Art and the Metropolitan Museum of Art, inspiring me to create this quiz. I have attempted to give sufficient information in the questions so that persons with a passing interest in photographic images will stand a reasonable prospect of getting many of the correct answers. Many of the photographers included in the quiz also had successful careers as commercial photographers and are known in this context, but all are also artists with a camera. As usual, my quizzes are not built for speed, and taking your time to consider the choices presented will undoubtedly help you achieve a better score. The two basic sources used for this quiz are Phillipi, ed., "Icons: 20th Century Photography Museum Ludwig Cologne" (Tacshen, 2001) and Stepan, ed., "Icons of Photography, The 20th Century" (Prestel, 1999). For several questions, I have also consulted other sources, which I will provide upon request.
