Rebecca 2005

"Rebecca" (2005) is a color photograph by Alec Soth, capturing a young woman holding an infant in an empty lot. The photograph, taken in the style of documentary photography, is a poignant portrayal of everyday life, emphasizing the candid and intimate nature of the subject. The image's composition uses a shallow depth of field to focus attention on the figures while blurring the background, creating a sense of isolation and introspection. Soth's work often explores themes of solitude, vulnerability, and the American landscape, reflecting the complex realities of contemporary life.
