Some photographs are so famous that they’ve become part of our collective visual history. But the stories behind them – and the lengths photographers have gone to capture them – are often more of a mystery. A new exhibition at Hasted Hunt Kraeutler in New York, “Great Photographs of the 20th Century: Staged and Startled,” looks under the skirts of 22 such photos by the likes of Richard Avedon, Irving Penn, William Eggleston, Steven Klein and Tina Barney.
