Henry Wessel, Jr.

Night Walk, Los Angeles, No. 28

A stark black-and-white photograph capturing the quiet, atmospheric streets of Los Angeles at night, where pools of artificial light cast dramatic shadows across urban surfaces. Wessel's masterful use of gelatin silver print emphasizes the interplay of darkness and illumination, transforming ordinary nocturnal scenes into something both mysterious and deeply cinematic. The image reflects the artist's signature observational style, finding poetic tension in the stillness and solitude of the American night landscape.

Medium
Gelatin silver print.
