Landscape Activity 1

The image captured by Walker Evans is  a landscape image. The objective analysis (what you can actually see in the image) are objects like the cemetery stones, some buildings, electricity poles. etc. I personally think this image is about a message of life. Although people die life still goes on. Poeple build around the ones that others have lost. This image can be considered art due to the fact that it is a photograph of realism. Realism is choosing an everyday subject matter that helps prompt photography as a aesthetic medium. This image could also be considered art because you can tell Evans has put thought into this photograph. He though about the subject matter(s), the style wanted to propose and he put his expression into the photograph.
