‘Spots and Lines’ or ‘Summer’

Lotte Johanna Jacobi (signed by artist), in or after 1946 - in or before 1955

Lotte Jacobi began making photograms in the second half of the 1940s. No camera is involved in this process: the image is created by placing one or more objects on photographic paper and shining light on it. Jacobi moved the source of light and the objects during the exposure. This photograph is titled Spots and Lines and Summer. No matter how abstract a photograph is, something can always be seen in it.
