The Hillside c. 1898

"The Hillside" is a striking photographic print created by Clarence H. White around 1898. The image depicts two figures, one standing and one lying down, in a wooded area. The composition is evocative, with the figures' poses creating a sense of mystery and intrigue. White's use of soft focus and a muted palette enhances the overall mood of the work, characteristic of his Pictorialist style, which aimed to elevate photography to the level of fine art. The photo is a testament to White's skill in capturing fleeting moments and imbuing them with emotional resonance.
