About the Item
Street Photographer Mitchell Funk captures a frontal portrait of an older woman with an inventively outrageous look. Piercing blue circular eyeglasses and a handmade pointy hat reminiscent of 19th-century English illustrations of fairies are standout features of her uniqueness.
As a pioneer of color photography, Funk looks at color as if it were iconography. The color is the subject as much as the unexpectedly interesting subject.
