Raymond+Jacquette+Portrait



1) The first photo was taken by Richard Avedon. I really enjoy this picture due to how Avedon places his studio lights, it almost looks as if his skin is glowing white. What attracts me most to this photo is his eyes due to the high amount of contrast and revolution. The compositional technique Avedon used was framing, as you can see by the man being almost perfectly centered in the photo. The photo is by Richard Avedon, and the photo is called American West 3.

2) The second picture that is colored with the boy in it was taken by Robert Bergman. He uses an inkjet printing process to create the soft translucent tones in his photographs, the aura of mysterious light that sometimes seems almost holy. The compositional technique Bergman used was framing, as you can see by the boy basically being centered in the photo. This photo is called Untitled, created in 1989.

3) The third photo with the old man was taken by Imogen Cunningham. He uses a gelatin silver print to create this photo. it is called Morris Graves in His Leek Garden, created in 1973. I like this photo because the way his arms are folded and his facial expression really lets you know that he has something important on his mind.
