Questions About Black And White Portraiture
- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 19, 2021Black and white photography refers to imagery that only consists of different tones of grey. The unique and timeless quality of a black and white photograph accentuates any room. Some might argue that we’re naturally drawn to color photography because it’s the world we know best. Find black and white photography today on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 28, 2021A good black and white photo is about telling a story, highlighting a subject, and expressing emotions, without the distraction of colors.

On 1stDibs find a huge array of black and white photos by different artists and in various styles and sizes.
- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 5, 2021A black and white photo is usually just called exactly that. The unique and timeless quality of a black and white photograph accentuates any room.

- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 2, 2021A black and white drawing is frequently called exactly that — a black and white drawing.
