Untitled (Nude) c. 1955

"Untitled (Nude)" is a stark black and white photograph by renowned British photographer Bill Brandt, taken around 1955. It features a close-up of a woman's torso, with the focus on the curves of her body. Brandt was known for his stark, often surrealist style, and this piece is a testament to his masterful use of light and shadow to create a sense of depth and form. The photograph's simplicity and its emphasis on the human form are characteristic of Brandt's work and exemplify the power of photographic realism.
