Weegee similarly documented the raw nocturnal underbelly of urban life using available and flash light to create dramatic gelatin silver prints with deep shadows and stark contrasts. His unflinching intimacy with marginal figures, night workers, and street life in 1930s and 1940s New York directly parallels this image of a Parisian prostitute caught in a fleeting, unguarded moment.

Model shared Brassaï's dedication to photographing working class and marginal urban figures in cafés, bars, and nighttime social spaces with a similarly gritty and psychologically charged atmosphere. Her black and white work captures the same quiet dignity and raw humanity found in this image of a lone woman in a dimly lit Parisian establishment.

Brandt documented the nocturnal social landscape of 1930s London with the same atmospheric interplay of electric light and deep shadow found in this Brassaï print, often focusing on working class figures in pubs and nightlife venues. His gelatin silver prints share the theatrical luminosity and documentary intimacy that transforms everyday marginal scenes into quietly poignant social documents.
