Water Tower and Radio City, New York. 1933; printed circa 1983.
Silver print, the image measuring 20½x16 cm, 8⅛x6¼ inches; with a label on verso.

These prints were made for the Japanese edition of the 1983 title Alfred Stieglitz: Photographs and Writings that accompanied the exhibition at the National Gallery of Art (Sarah Greenough and Juan Hamilton, National Gallery of Art/Callway Editions, 1983). The title and page number are referenced on the label on verso.

According to the Stieglitz–O'Keeffe correspondence, these two photographs were probably made in January 1933 (YCAL).
