| Photography By Yousuf Karsh |
For this I have chosen a portraiture of Audrey Hepburn done by YOUSUF KARSH. I had the pleasure of going to see his exhibit this summer at WAG and felt a strong connection to his work. What I think Karsh really conveyed to me was how simple subject composition can really make some truly stunning and moving images. I stood in front of his photo's for hours with my boyfriend that day. Each photograph creating and stirring more and more inspiration and awe for me the longer I stood in it's presence. The light and shadows in this and all of his work are simply stunning, creating movement for the eye but with a elegant focus on lines and composition. Karsh has added to my love of Black & White photography with the depth of tones he is able to capture. The shadows and light in this photo of Audrey Hepburn pulls you into her features showcasing her trademark look. Karsh will be someone I study and admire for the rest of my life.
