Untitled, from Easton Portraits

Judith Joy Ross (American, born 1946)

1988. Gelatin silver printing-out-paper print, 9 5/8 x 7 11/16" (24.5 x 19.6 cm). E.T. Harmax Foundation Fund. © 2010 Judith Joy Ross
224.1989

I chose each of these images since they are both of people loooking directly at the camera

They both have in common that of being women and relativly young. Each could be rather pretty
They dont have in common is that of nudity compared to being in swim suits. That the one on top is a model and the othwers are just young kids posing for a candid shot

Rosenberg is wrong due to the account that images are currently still being used in a different way then was in style the first time the show was released. 


I chose this one since it has a cool design
I chose this one for its subject



I chose this one for informal composition

In every case of these artists they seem to all have the common thing of documentery


I chose this one for the snap shot quality



I chose this one for the way that the bridge is corroding

I chose this one for its shadows that go along with the background
