Task 1 - Research

Historical photographers

George Lance


1834


  • a painter who specialized in panting still life (fruit and flowers). 
  • I like this painting although I think it's a little bit bland and would look better if it was more colourful.
  • the painting shows that the room was not light enough because you can see the shadows on the left side.
Frans Snyders

1650

  • a painter of animals, hunting scenes, market scenes and still life.
  • I like this painting more than the first one because it's bright and catches the eye straight away.
  • the painting shows motionless food as well as people and animals.

Andrew Scrivani

_MG_0959 (1)

  • a photographer and food stylist from New York.
  • I like this photo because you can see the egg coming down the side of the sandwich which looks pretty good and not boring.
  • it's not that colourful but the lighting was good.
Benoit Levac

Brunch photo by Benoit Levac

  • a food photographer who likes working with artificial light.
  • I find this photo interesting because there's so much to look at, you have to try to focus on one thing at a time.
  • it's a very messy photo but I like it.
