"Full Moon"

Lewis M. Rutherfurd

National Gallery of Art

This image presents a stereoscopic view of the full moon, captured in two identical photographs placed side by side. The point of view is directed towards the moon, displaying its surface in detail with prominent craters and dark and light areas. The horizon is not applicable in this context as the image focuses solely on the lunar body. The photographs do not appear to involve brushstrokes, as this is more likely a photographic print showing the monochrome details of the moon's surface. The overall color palette is simple, dominated by shades of black, white, and grey, creating a stark and high-contrast effect against the deep black background of space, which is bordered by a wide, vibrant blue frame.
