Theodore "Fonville" Winans
Theodore "Fonville" Winans (American/Louisiana 1911-1992) "Dixie Belles" silver gelatin print signed and dated "1938" on ink lower left 20 in. x 24 in. Note: The image of two young women dressed in their Sunday clothes staring at the camera with intensity has become an iconic example of Fonville photography. The 1938 image depicts Fonville's familiarity with capturing the various expressions on the faces of native Louisianians. Although the mood greatly differs from the jovial expression on the face of the oyster shucker in The Oysterman or the rough nature of Pierre Lombas in Native Shrimpman the similarities between these three famed images are displayed through Fonville's ability to see into his sitter's emotional state of mind and capture it through the camera.
