Dominant colour
Walter L. Flory, Julia McCune Flory, and Phoebe Flory is a 1915 by Clarence H. White, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This black-and-white photo shows a man, a woman, and a baby standing close together. The woman holds the baby in her arms, and the man stands slightly behind them, leaning on a dark surface. The woman wears a loose, draped dress, and the baby looks straight ahead with a calm expression. The lighting is soft, focusing on their faces and leaving the background dark. This style makes the subjects stand out clearly. Next, check out chiaroscuro to see 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.
