Photographer

Wynn Bullock (April 18, 1902 – November 16, 1975) is a recognized American master photographer of the 20th Century whose work is included in over 90 major museum collections around the world. He received substantial critical acclaim during his lifetime, published numerous books, and is mentioned in all the standard histories.

Are his human models real? Did they have to pose?

I was curious as to how he achieved such a dreary darkness in this photo.

What, if any, light settings did he have to use to achieve this drastic of a contrast?

  1. These are really cool works by Wynn Bullock! I'm voting that these are live models, that's just my guess I haven't researched to be certain. Cool in a morbid kind of way =)
