Visual Analysis of a Photo

http://www.instituteartist.com/exhibition-Girl-Culture-Lauren-Greenfield

                  The main focus of the photo are the pictures of the lady smiling and the note on the mirror. These are the most focused images and are at the foreground of the picture. On the edges of the photo there are beauty products. Behind the smiling pictures is a mirror where part of a woman's face is shown, but the image of her face is blurry. The angle that the picture is taken from is the point of view of the women whose hand and face appear in the picture. It is meant to show what she sees when she is putting on makeup or getting ready. Her point of view gives an insight into what she is thinking and seeing. The images of the smiling woman and the note are also larger compared to other portions of the picture. It is zoomed in and more focused on them.  The note and smiling pictures are meant to show how women struggle with accepting their own image and need reassurance that they are happy with their bodies and image.
