Alone


I'm not sure, but I think the inclusion of so much empty space in this 1951 
Lynes photo of an unknown model was somehow indicative of being alone.

    1. It's always a pleasure to go through Lynes' work to put together a series, Peter. He was a genius three or four decades ahead of his time. Glad you enjoyed it!

  3. What the above guys said, plus 1951 is a great year (I was born).

  4. Gorgeous and empty, not a particularly good situation. Lynes could certainly invoke feelings as well as some conversations.
