Dominant colour
Walter L. Flory and John Flory is a 1915 by Clarence H. White, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This photo shows two men standing close together. The one on the left is leaning in slightly, his hand resting on the other man’s shoulder. The man on the right stands straight, wearing a loose shirt with vertical folds. The background is plain and dark, making the figures stand out in soft light. The photo looks like it was taken in a quiet moment, with no other distractions. The lighting is gentle, almost like a shadowy glow. Next, check out chiaroscuro to see how artists use light and dark.
Clarence Hudson White was an American photographer, teacher and a founding member of the Photo-Secession movement.
