This is a photograph of a contact sheet with multiple portrait images. The contact sheet displays several frames of similarly composed black and white portrait photographs, arranged in rows and columns. Each frame on the sheet shows a single subject posed against a plain or neutral backdrop. Some frames are outlined in red. The photographs emphasize facial expressions, clothing, and posture. The contact sheet provides a glimpse into the process of selecting and viewing multiple analog photographs before digital editing became common.
