Eustace G. Calland (1871 - 1951) an electrician by trade, joined the Linked Ring in 1902 and took the pseudonym "Electricia." The composition of this photograph, The Mall, was considered radical - the placement of the tree bisected the frame. Stieglitz appreciated Calland's unorthodoxy, and presented it as a photogravure in CAMERA NOTES.
