Pand op Noordeinde 140 te Den Haag 1912

This photograph of Pand op Noordeinde 140 te Den Haag was created by an anonymous artist. It shows a building with many windows, and some climbing foliage. Looking at this piece, I think about how the artist made various decisions. There must have been a lot of back and forth. Maybe the artist was thinking about the Dutch Masters, about light and shadow and how to capture that on film. I imagine that the artist was looking at the lines, trying to find harmony in the architectural structure but also in the garden that surrounds the house. I wonder if the artist was trying to capture a feeling of home, a place of comfort and peace. Artists are constantly in dialogue, echoing each other across time. There is no right or wrong way to see a photograph like this, it is all about feeling and instinct.
