EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Leonhard Foeger, an employee at the Karas printing shop in Vienna showcases a series of no smoking signs. The image, taken on March 8,2018, highlights the attention to detail and creative use of contrast within the interior space. The close-up shot focuses on the hand of an unrecognizable individual holding one of these detailed paper signs. The photograph effectively portrays the prohibition against smoking with its clear message and bold design. The depth of field adds a sense of dimension to the image as some parts remain out of focus while others are sharply defined. This technique draws viewers' eyes towards the hand and sign notice, emphasizing their significance. Cigarette smoke is widely recognized as dangerous to both smokers and those around them; hence, this visual representation serves as a reminder for people to respect designated non-smoking areas. By capturing this moment in such a visually striking manner, Foeger brings attention to an important issue without explicitly mentioning any commercial use or specific company. Overall, this print skillfully captures a simple yet powerful message through its composition and subject matter. It serves as a testament to Foeger's ability to transform everyday scenes into thought-provoking works of art that resonate with audiences worldwide.
