EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston's playful spirit and artistic flair. In this full-length self-portrait, Johnston confidently poses as a man, complete with a false moustache, while standing next to a Penny Farthing bicycle. The composition is strikingly composed, with Johnston facing left towards the camera, exuding an air of confidence and adventure. The albumen print technique adds depth and texture to the image, enhancing its timeless quality. Johnston's choice to dress as a man challenges societal norms of gender roles during her time period. By adopting this persona, she not only showcases her creativity but also highlights her determination to break barriers in both art and life. The presence of the Penny Farthing bicycle further emphasizes Johnston's adventurous spirit. This iconic symbol of early cycling history represents freedom, exploration, and progress. Through this self-portrait, Johnston invites us into her world as an artist who fearlessly pushes boundaries. Her use of photography as a means for self-expression is evident in every detail captured within this image. As we admire this remarkable piece from Frances Benjamin Johnston's body of work, we are reminded that true artistry knows no bounds - it transcends time and defies expectations.
