Photo done by Eve Arnold
Where is the light coming from?
The light in the photo is coming from the bottom left corner of the photo. The light source is on the ground in front of the woman and children, facing upwards at them.
What is the position or gesture of the model?
The position of the models are them slouching while they are standing. They are all held close together too as a family.
What is the background or setting?
The setting is not very clear because the background is black, but there is a wooden table on the side of the people that they are leaning on. The picture may have been taken in the house that these people are living in.
What is the point of view and distance of the photographer?
The point of view of the photographer is from above, but not completely a bird's eye view. The photographer is normal distance away from the people and isn't close or far away from them.
What does the lighting, position of model and expression on face communicate?
All three of those things indicate a feeling of sadness or loss. The woman and the kids in the picture seem to have lost something important to them and now are mourning over it. They are all looking in the same direction which can symbolize that they are all thinking the same thing together.
