Man Ray pioneered the solarization technique in photography alongside Lee Miller, creating surrealist portrait prints with the same striking tonal reversals and dreamlike distortions seen in Blumenfeld's Manina. His experimental darkroom approach and Surrealist sensibility align directly with this gelatin silver print's avant garde aesthetic.

Lee Miller co-developed the solarization process and applied it extensively to black and white portrait photography, producing works with the same eerie tonal reversals and surrealist mood that define Blumenfeld's Manina. Her experimental modernist portraits share both the technical medium and the uncanny visual quality of this specific piece.

Dora Maar created avant garde experimental photographs using darkroom manipulation and photomontage techniques that produced surrealist distortions in black and white portrait imagery closely comparable to Blumenfeld's solarized work. Her Surrealist movement photography shares the same experimental spirit and uncanny tonal transformation found in Manina.
