“Women are quicker and more adaptable than men. And I think they have an intuition that helps them understand personalities more quickly than men…. And a good photograph of course is just that, to catch a person not when he is unaware of it but when he is his most natural self.’7”
Antony Penrose, The Lives of Lee Miller
