    Photography shows us the world‚ but only the world the photographer creates. According to Sontag‚ “photography implies that we know about the world if we accept it as the camera records it.” In other words the viewer only sees what’s within the frame. Images allowed us to see situations that occurred‚ however‚ it’s extremely limited in what the audience can see. I agree with Sontag’s claim that photography limits our understanding of the world. Photography has accomplished the task of manipulation

    The Machinist: A Psychological Portrait of a Killer Despite being an esoteric genre‚ several films dare to delve into the realm of psychological thrillers.

    commensurate with flash fiction. Both are self-contained‚ complete methods of conveying a rich story in a strictly condensed format. While flash fiction has a beginning‚ middle and end‚ it is considered a glimpse into a larger narrative. Crewdson’s use of photography accomplishes the very same goal of providing that glimpse while staying true to providing a complete story. While it may seem difficult to understand how a single photograph can relay an entire story worth of information‚ the method divulges the

    The Portrait of Ladislaus Von Fraunberg‚ Count of Haag can be found in the Liechtenstein Museum in Vienna‚ Austria. The portrait was painted by Hans Mielich in 1557. The full bodied composition portrays the Count of Haag‚ with his royal power inside his throne chambers. This renaissance take on a life-size full-length ruler portrait expresses a bunch of artistic choices on the behalf of Mielich. In his work‚ I would argue Hans Mielich is trying to visually transpose the wealth‚ masculinity‚ and power
