Work Description: 
In this black and white portrait, Clyfford Still poses upon an interior staircase within his studio building at 48 Cooper Square in New York City. Photographed from below Still's position near the staircase's spiral juncture, the image situates the ascending stairs in the foreground. Still looks downward at the camera and grips the staircase's wooden railing in his right hand. The artist wears glasses, black slacks, and a black sweater over a light-colored shirt. His shadow casts upon the wall to his right. Hans Namuth photographed Still in his studio on November 24, 1951.
