As a pioneer of pictorialism, Henry B. Goodwin was one of the first photographers in Sweden to think of photography as an art form rather than a medium for documentation. In his unique experimental way, he approached his subjects like a painter.
Goodwin became a famous name in Stockholm and during the early 1900s, he would photograph both local and international actors, dancers, and other celebrities in the city. Dark tones and softened focus became the signum of his romantic Jugend style, which took his photographic work to art saloons in New York, Los Angeles, and London.
