"Eleanor, Chicago" is a 1949 black and white photograph by Harry Callahan. Known for his minimalist approach, Callahan captures Eleanor, his wife, submerged in water, her eyes closed, emphasizing her serene presence. The composition is simple, with the subject's face and flowing hair dominating the foreground against the backdrop of rippling water. Callahan's signature style, often characterized by a starkness and a sense of intimacy, is evident in this iconic photograph.
