EDITORS COMMENTS
In this black and white portrait, we see a mid-adult woman wiping her nose with an elegant handkerchief. The simplicity of the composition draws our attention to her expressive face as she deals with the discomfort of a head cold. With short hair framing her features, she exudes a timeless beauty that harks back to the past. The studio shot captures her in waist-up posing, looking directly at the camera with confidence and vulnerability simultaneously. Against a clean white background, every detail is accentuated, emphasizing the authenticity of this moment frozen in time. This photograph is part of a series by George Marks that explores human experiences and emotions. It evokes nostalgia for an era when handkerchiefs were essential accessories carried by women like this one who embody strength and grace even while battling illness. As we observe this mid-adult woman's actions, we can almost feel ourselves sympathizing with her plight - sneezing or rubbing our own noses in empathy. This image serves as a reminder that no matter what decade it was taken in – be it 1930s or 1940s – common ailments such as colds and flu have always been part of our shared human experience. George Marks' masterful use of photography elevates this ordinary moment into artistry, allowing us to appreciate both its aesthetic appeal and emotional resonance.
