Pictorialism (Gertrude Käsebier)

In this black and white pictorialism photograph of Gertrude Käsebier we see a women's silouhette sitting holding flowers by the window with some curtens.

I think the intention of the photographer was to show a lonely person holding flowers, maybe flowers that someone gave her. Maybe to show lonelyness and nostalgy.

My reaction of this photographer was very positive. I like how we see the person's silouhette, which makes it mysterious because we don't see who it is exactly. I find that it shows a lot of emotions and lonelyness.

I find this image good. I like the fact that it's black and white. I like the shadows and the feeling that this photograph gives.
