Bill Brandt


In my portraits I try to avoid the fleeting expression and vivacity of a snapshot.
 (Bill Brandt, 1904-1983)


Baie des Anges, France, 1959


 
 Seaford, East Sussex Coast, 1957


 london, 1953


 
 Portrait of a Young Girl, Eaton Place, 1955


 If there is any method in the way I take pictures, I believe it lies in this. See the subject first. Do not try to force it to be a picture of this, that or the other thing. Stand apart from it. Then something will happen. The subject will reveal itself.
 (Bill Brandt, 1904-1983)


 Jean Dubuffet, 1960
