Description
This collection by the acclaimed photographer reveals the shadowy side of the City by the Bay.
Following in the footsteps of classic films like The Maltese Falcon and The Lady from Shanghai , veteran photographer Fred Lyon creates images of San Francisco in high contrast with a sense of mystery. In this latest offering from the photographer of San Francisco: Portrait of a City 1940–1960 , Lyon presents a darker tone, exploring the hidden corners of his native city.
Images taken in the foggy night are illuminated only by streetlights, neon signs, apartment windows, and the headlights of classic cars. Sharply dressed couples stroll out for evening shows, drivers travel down steep hills, and sailors work through the night at the old Fisherman's Wharf.
In many of the photographs, the noir tone is enhanced by double exposures, elements of collage, and blurred motion. These strikingly evocative duotone images expose a view of San Francisco as only Fred Lyon could capture.
