What makes us admire a sparsely populated photograph of two bicycles by Augusto Cantamessa? Or the striking visual effect displayed by a Depression-era Walker Evans picture of a man smoking and staring out past the lens? The beauty of a great photograph lies in its lines and their power to confront the viewer visually. Throughout history, photographers have made use of photographic line in a vast variety of ways, from the “instantaneous lines” of Henri Cartier-Bresson and the rational lines of the New Topographics to the diversity of lines created by the human body.
