FRANCE. Paris. Palais Garnier. Stage curtain. February 2004.
This photograph is extremely dark and is mostly made up of black space. However, the way Power took the picture allows the viewer to create an idea of what the photo is of. The light shines through the negative space between the "objects" creating a strong enough outline for the viewer to tell that there is a curtain present and it is hanging above what we assume is a stage. Two strong lines in the picture are seen vertically down the center of the photograph and horizontally along the golden light outlining the bottom of the curtain. The picture gives a sense of wonder, leaving the veiwer thinking "What exactly is behind the curtain?"
