Petra Bindel, Photographer, New York

Description

This still life photograph by Petra Bindel captures a simple white plate holding red tomatoes placed centrally on a herringbone parquet wooden floor. A beam of natural sunlight streams across the floor from an open doorway in the background, which looks out onto a balcony with metal railings. The interior is cast in deep shadow on the right side, where the silhouette of a wooden chair frame is partially visible. The composition emphasizes the play of light and shadow across the warm wooden tones of the floor and the contrast with the bright exterior light.
