Else Wachenheimer en een onbekende vrouw in struikgewas voor een schutting, Bexhill-on-Sea in Engeland, 1913 1913

This photograph of Else Wachenheimer and an unknown woman in Bexhill-on-Sea, England, was taken in 1913 by an anonymous photographer. It’s a moment captured in sepia tones, like a memory half-faded but still hanging on. The composition is interesting, isn't it? The women are positioned behind a dense thicket, almost swallowed by the foliage. There's this lovely tension between concealment and revelation. It makes you wonder about the relationship between the women, how they feel about being captured like this. The texture of the photograph is also so compelling, the way the details are softened, almost blurred, gives it a timeless quality. It reminds me of the way Gerhard Richter used to drag paint across the surface of his canvases to create an effect of blurred realism. This image is like a whisper from the past. It invites us to reflect on the fleeting nature of time and the ambiguity of human experience.
