August Sanders



August Sanders
Pastrycook, 1928
Shows profession, outfit on, white jacket, subject looking at the camera, as if they have some sort of dialog with the photographer, pride, professional mask, pause in the middle of work, but Sanders got him posing. Light set up in certain way, really contrast making his jacket, the shine from the bowl, carefully composed  lines of draw come and meet towards his head, drawing our attention of his face the diagonal line of his hand going towards the corner with the spoon, and his body takes up a significant amount of space within the portrait.
