About Elliott Erwitt

Erwitt often photographed dogs and everyday absurdities, sometimes from a dog’s-eye view. His images bring a gentle smile to a room. Black and white photography removes colour so shape, light and emotion lead. Without colour, a photograph relies on contrast, texture and composition, which is why black and white feels timeless. Black-and-white prints sit comfortably in almost any room, from minimalist to traditional.
