The Queen of Sheba by Charles Berg. A vintage antique photograph from 1896.
Charles Berg’s photographs frequently picture classically draped models surrounded by architectural elements. They appeared most regularly between 1896 and 1901 in photographic annuals and monthlies, such as American Amateur Photographer, American Annual of Photography, Photo Era, Photographic Times, and England’s Photograms of the Year. The February 1898 issue of Goodey’s Magazine featured a lead article on him and his work. In 1901, art critic Charles H. Caffin included an image by Berg in his ground-breaking book Photography as a Fine Art: The Achievements and Possibilities of Photographic Art in America. Due to Berg’s expertise, he judged exhibitions and competitions for the Orange (New Jersey) Camera Club in 1899, the Philadelphia Photographic Salon in 1901, and the Eastman Kodak Company in 1902.
