Laura Gilpin was one of the most prolific photographers of the 20th century, with a career spanning over 70 years. Study with Clarence H. White led her to initially embrace a pictorialist style that emphasized beauty and artistic creation over photography’s documentary qualities. But over time she developed a more straightforward photographic approach, becoming widely known for her extended documentation of the Southwestern landscape and the Diné (Navajo) people. In 1979 Gilpin bequeathed the Museum over 6,000 prints and 20,000 negatives as well as her personal library collection, and the Laura Gilpin Papers.
