Been studying a wonderful old book of mine "History Of Art" by H.W. Janson. Love this book, it has so many graphic portraits that are rather
remarkable. It is amazing how many great works there are, that are a bit
forgotten in time.
I came accross this wonderful Madonna detail. I want to try to so something similar with my Rolleiflex and close up lens hand held in the field, this coming trip. Portraits in this style might work best for the "Forgotten Laughter", "Migrant Worker" and "Lost Innocence" photographic projects.
