In this self-portrait, Rose holds the Cirkut camera he invented to make his panoramic photographs such as Brooklyn Bridge, New York City, in Woodmere’s collection. In photographing himself with his camera—the tool of his trade—he follows in the footsteps of many artists and photographers through history who paid homage to their instruments, be they cameras or paintbrushes.
