Image Hoard: Black & White

It's about time for another stack of inspiration on this here blog.  These are all monochrome (or close enough) and have struck me at one point or another over the last couple of months.  The reasons that an image resonates are always somewhat intangible, and I like to keep it that way, keep it fluid. 

Enjoy!

    Found your site by poking around, looking for Sargent paintings and portraits of homeless men. Perfect!
