Untitled 1968

Ralph Gibson's 1968 black and white photograph, *Untitled*, is a striking example of his signature style. The image features a door slightly ajar, revealing a darkened hallway, while the viewer is positioned in the adjacent hallway where sunlight streams through the window. This creates a sense of mystery and intrigue, as the viewer is left wondering what lies beyond the door. Gibson’s masterful use of light and shadow, along with the cropped composition that obscures the subject’s identity, invites the viewer to contemplate the unseen and to ponder the complexities of human perception.
