Seascape: Cascade River, Lake Superior 1995

Hiroshi Sugimoto's Seascape: Cascade River, Lake Superior (1995) is a black and white photograph that captures a minimalist seascape of Lake Superior's Cascade River. The photograph is characteristic of Sugimoto's "Seascapes" series, which explores the relationship between nature and time by capturing the horizon line and the vastness of the ocean, reducing them to their essential elements. Sugimoto's work, which often uses long exposures, is known for its serene and contemplative quality. This particular photograph, featuring the expanse of Lake Superior shrouded in mist, embodies that meditative quality, inviting viewers to contemplate the vastness of the natural world.
