The photograph titled “Tina Reciting” was taken by Edward Weston in 1924. This image captures a woman, Tina Modotti, who appears to be in mid-speech or recitation. Her head is tilted upwards slightly, and her eyes are closed, conveying a sense of emotion and expression as if she is deeply engrossed in the act of reciting. The lighting accentuates the contours of her face and lends a soft glow to her features. The photograph is monochromatic and uses shadow and light to evoke a mood that resonates with the subject matter. The focus on just her head and neck, along with her closed eyes, gives the impression of an intimate and contemplative moment being shared.
