Julia McCune Flory and Elizabeth Flory is a 1915 by Clarence H. White, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This photo shows two women sitting close together. The one on the left looks straight at you with soft, rounded features, while the other woman, behind her, has her hair pulled back and is looking off to the side. Both wear simple, dark clothing, and the lighting makes their faces glow against a shadowy background. The woman in front holds something small in her hands—maybe a piece of paper or fabric. The lighting is soft, almost like a spotlight, which makes their faces stand out clearly. Check out *chiaroscuro* to learn how artists use light and shadow like this.
Clarence Hudson White was an American photographer, teacher and a founding member of the Photo-Secession movement.
