Diane Arbus and Her Magnificent Work
Diane Arbus was one of the most notable photographers of the 20th century and while her work did not receive accolades until after her premature death (due to suicide), today she is hailed for her remarkable ability to find the extraordinary in theho hum of everyday life.
Two of Her Famous Photos
While Diane Arbus is known for a wide collection of photos, two of her most well known photos include the Child with Toy Grenade and the Identical Twins. The first photo is of a very thin and scrawny boy holding a grenade tightly in his hand. He is wearing a jumper with one of his straps hanging off as he smiles manically.
The second photo by Diane Arbus is of identical twins. In this photo two identical sisters stand beside one another, one of the girls has a slight smile, the other a slight frown. To read about Diane Arbus, please visit our main website at the following link: http://www.smithsonianmag.com/
