Pink Blossoms, 2005 - Sally Gall

About the Work

About Pink Blossoms

Several years ago, Sally Gall fell in love with the blossoming trees of Central Park. Though she is best known for her black-and-white photographs, she saw that the vivid palette of branches begged to be shot in color. In this image, the blue background acts as a canvas or a "color field" against which to frame the energy of the pink cherry blossoms. The composition is precise and controlled, while at the same time serving as an homage to the ephemerality of the flowers, which are destined to fade away.Read Less
