John Hedgecoe

Factual: This photograph was taken by John Hedgecoe who was an award-winning British photographer and author of over 30 books on photography. He was born 24 March 1932 and passed away on the 3rd June 2010. 

Context: I think this photograph shows a lot of emotion because the woman looks depressed and lonely.

Technical: in my opinion this photograph was taken in a studio set up to look like its in a 'war' setting.

Aesthetic: what I like about this photo is that the setting looks intense and real and you can almost feel as lonely as the woman
