"Tears" - 1932, an icon of visual poetry and photography. 📷 An icon of visual poetry and photography. Discover "Tears," a legendary work by Man Ray, master of surrealism and pioneer of artistic photography. At a time when photography's status as an art form was still in doubt, Man Ray broke new ground with this timeless image, both disturbing and sublime. This gaze lost toward the sky, these unreal and dramatic tears of glass, these elegant curves... everything in this image evokes the border between dream and reality, between cinema and painting, between emotion and artifice. Inspired by the expressive faces of silent cinema, this photograph plays on ambiguity: authentic sadness or masquerade. Behind these ecstatic eyes, some read an allegory of Man Ray's grief after his breakup with Lee Miller, muse and artist in her own right. Others see it as a baroque Virgin of Sorrows, frozen in a surreal universe where time and space disappear. 💎 Print characteristics: ✅ Black and white art photo. ✅ Glossy finish for unparalleled intensity and depth. ✅ Professional paper – premium quality 270g/m² ✅ Format: 20.5 X 30.5 cm.
