“A fantastic picture you do in a fraction of a second but to arrive to do this picture you must put your life in there, to give your time and to receive it from the community that you come to see”

ENQUIRE ABOUT THIS WORK

 

This to my mind is one of Sebastiao’s most beautiful and lyrical photographs. He spent many months documenting the global coffee production industry. While in India he photographed this coffee plantation where this woman was sifting through the coffee beans. Both tender and empathetic in mood and feeling. A masterpiece of composition and light.
