First cut, "photograph's" seems wrong, but we can't say flat
out it's wrong without more context. It would be easy to
think of contexts where it would be right.
In Hanno's work, what exactly does "photograph" connote?
"Photograph" could be a short name for a group made up of
people in an organization, with the name of the organization
containing "photograph".
Or he could be thinking of a generalized concept he refers
to as "the photograph", and in "Photograph's Masterpieces"
"photograph" could mean his term "the photograph" with the
"the" omitted, as in headline style.
Anyway, if the you consider making the title "Photographs
Masterpieces", that doesn't seem to make sense without more
explanation. It doesn't say anything meaningful to me.
