Alone in a Landscape

Photography by John Fass

 One of the themes in John Fass' photography is the theme of the solitary individual alone in a landscape. 

This is a theme of other 20th century Modernist artists.  It is particularly characteristic of Precisionism artists such as Edward Hopper.  Although John Fass' book arts are deeply rooted in medieval design, his photography is very much a part of his own modern era.
