Charles Sheeler-
Charles Sheeler was an American painter and photographer, credited as the creator of Precisionism painting and as a master photographer. His work is very geometrical, showing the common shapes in modern industrial buildings. They are also black and white, with high contrast and intense shadows.
This is a comparison between Sheeler’s image and one of my own, both depict some part of an industrial structure in black and white. They both use harsh shadows and lighting, however mine appears more like a silhouette while Sheeler’s is immensely detailed. Mine also appears to have cooler tones, while Sheeler’s appears warmer. His would have also been done using physical film while mine was taken digitally, along with the editing. His also shows a lot more of the surrounding environment while mine is more close up and abstract.
