Sumaré
Trimmed 8x10 inch contact print, 1952
Sumaré is a photograph of the rusted side of a water tank and the title is a reference to a hilltop region in Rio de Janeiro, Brasil. Frederick Sommer recalled when making this image, he decided to expose the sheet of film despite the fact there was little to see on the ground glass.
