<span style="font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 130%;"> 3. style and major genre: The photographs of Monroe show a depth of understanding between photographer and subject that is rare. Eva captures moments where Monroe seems to be completely oblivious to the presence of a camera around her. These photographs often manage to mingle her vulnerability, loneliness and her sex appeal all in the same frame. Arnold shows us another side to Monroe, the star as a real person, with feelings, thoughts and fears just like everyone else. This major retrospective exhibition is not to be missed. Arnold's collection of photograph's is of great historical significance but perhaps the most unique and commendable quality of her work is the unobtrusive, sensitive way in which she uses her camera, a quality rare in photo-journalism. In more recent times we have become increasingly aware of the extremely obtrusive and insensitive methods that photo-journalists employ to get the photographs they want.

<span style="font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 130%;"> 4. Eve's images are a clear capture of documentary photography. Her images are quite simple but effective. The images makes me stop and think about what Eve Arnold is trying to tell you. Some of the design elements I see in her work are the rule of thirds, balance and simplicity. The source of the light like looks natural lighting.
