Dahl-Wolfe

Dah-Wolfe for Harper's Bazaar, 1938

I couldn’t believe my eyes when I first saw this image in the pages of a photography book. Just like how sometimes we find illustrations that resemble photographs, with this picture, we find a photograph that resembles an illustration. I really enjoy the narrative quality and the contrast variety of this photograph taken by Loise Dah-Wolfe . Rather than a camera, it seems as if it was rendered with graphite over Bristol board.
