Hotel Bathroom, Paris
Excerpt from Light Gesture and Color:
Leonardo Da Vinci said that the only time we see true color is between dawn and sunrise or between sunset and dusk. He claimed that the sun altered and influenced light as it moved across the sky.
If you look at what Monet did as he painted the haystacks during the course of the day, he was illustrating this fact as his subjects changed color as he worked on each painting. In the picture of the girl with the halo reflected from the bicycle, we have light that is momentary and fleeting. Painters love to work with north light, the light which is unchanging.
A photographer told me north light looked better the longer you looked at it. I realized later he was trying to explain the ability to really study north light, the ability to spend time looking at color and light which would not change.
I was in Paris in a friend’s hotel room. I had to go to the bathroom (that’s another constant). I walked in and there it was. The light was gorgeous, and it was north light. By the way for the first few years I was in business most of my photographs of people were all shot with window light, probably north light. I didn’t know how to use artificial ights.
