Steichen and Steiglitz were two who tried to create a "foundation" for art photography. Would this be rules?

Now that I think about it, I remember something about the rule of golden thirds originating in the golden age of Greek art.
Just maybe, over a period of time, people noticed that pictures evenly divided between land and sky or sea and sky were not quite as interesting than those which included more of one than the other. Maybe, people noticed that the primary subject might be more interesting if it wasn't exactly in the middle of the image. Maybe over a period of time these suggestions, and others, acquired the status of laws to some people.
