It almost sounds like she used the camera as a way to criticize people, wanting to accentuate every noticeable flaw. Not my kind of photographer, I must say!<br /><br />The two little girls in the first photo look quite somber don't they?Jana Iverson Lasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07687969613629975601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2811816265352920171.post-32218177657219143252012-11-25T13:24:06.084-05:002012-11-25T13:24:06.084-05:00I'd never heard of Diane Arbus either, so than...I'd never heard of Diane Arbus either, so thanks for a bit of education!

And speaking of Arbus, the Lifetime channel is showing non-stop Christmas movies, one of which is "The Road to Christmas" starring Jennifer Grey. In a brief scene the 2 main characters are discussing great art and great photographers, including Arbus! I had never heard of her until I watched the movie, and now here I'm reading about her in your blog. How strange is that??Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17863357756727783017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2811816265352920171.post-2100913024813596742012-11-25T08:10:40.289-05:002012-11-25T08:10:40.289-05:00The tintype does have an eery resemblance to that ...The tintype does have an eery resemblance to that Arbus photo.Postcardyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16399915833682943432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2811816265352920171.post-55525038530663756462012-11-25T05:59:11.029-05:002012-11-25T05:59:11.029-05:00Thanks for the links Peggy.
