Jane Reece Easter Lillies - Public domain painting

description

Summary

Autor fotografií: Jane Reece; Jane Reece´s photographs

Picture from the installation of 34 photographs of children. Some of Reece’s earliest work – a pre-Pictoralism series of candid and studio posed cyanotypes on cotton cloth and gelatin silver photographs of African-American children in Southern Pines, North Carolina in 1903 (where she had gone for health reasons).

Portraits of individual children from the Dayton area are also included as well as examples depicting children posed in costumes or scenes reminiscent of Old Master paintings. Reece’s portraits are not mere photo-documentation keepsakes; they engage the viewer mentally and emotionally - whispering possible stories and hinting at the complex minds of the sitters.
