MoMA has one - the Met had one, but with the acquisition of the Gilman
Collection it then had two. I guess it is the art "market" - so hey - sell
one off for mucho dosh

The Sotherby's catalogue text on this photo (which you can find at their
site) is quite long and interesting reading

Where these taken at the time Steichen and Stieglitz were stuck together
while their wives were off having an affair with each other..?
