The Transformation of Photography Post WWII

Christie’s will be auctioning Trevor Traina’s collection of photographs captured post-World War II. Over 130 objects will be offered at Christie’s in New York as part of An Eye Towards the Real: Photographs from the Collection of Ambassador Trevor Traina.

Photography underwent a profound transformation in the decades following the Second World War. From the rise of street photography and the emergence of leading female voices to the changing portrayal of the American landscape, the medium has developed alongside technological innovations and cultural change.

Across eras and styles, former US Ambassador to Austria, Trevor Traina, has built a collection that captures the major threads of photography’s post-war evolution. ‘The collection tells quite a few different stories,’ Ambassador Traina tells Christie’s. ‘I’ve always been attracted to photography because it feels like the medium of our time. It feels fresh.
