Eisen und Stahl is an important work in the history of modern photography. It exemplifies Renger-Patzsch's New Objectivity approach and attempts to redefine how industry and technology could be photographed. It was published, in part, to persuade a sceptical public that all was well with the ailing German economy prior to the fall of the Weimar government.
