Leslie Gill :: Studio Window, West 56th Street, NYC, ca. 1938 / src: The Guardian. In the early years, the presence of windows in photographs was driven by necessity: photography in its infancy required great amounts of light, and windows obliged. This history may have mattered little to Leslie Gill when he created this tightly framed masterpiece, which looks almost as if someone has opened up a panel in one of Piet Mondrian’s canvases to discover the real world hidden behind it.

The horizon in this picture describes an arc just as if describing the globe itself. Incorporating the technique of deformation, the work was made by burning a negative image onto warped printing paper. The photograph was taken at the coast of Akasaki near photographer Shiotani’s home in Kotoura, Tottori. [quoted from source]
