As a woman and an artist, Eve Arnold was an inspiration. There’s a nice collection of her work available on the Guardian website, including images of Marilyn Monroe which are her most well-known.
The collection misses out my favourite photo of hers though – it’s this one of the queen, caught off guard. I love the naturalness of the pose, the genuinely happy-looking smile and the use of negative space…
The Queen by Eve Arnold | 1913-2012

I loved her style of photography – it was amazing!
A great loss ;___;
I know :( I hope I’m still taking photos when I’m 99.
I love this photo. Indeed, what a great loss.
I lover her work so much and this photo of the Queen is a fantastic example of why her work is so great! Love it!
She is such an inspiration. I will go and take some more photos tomorrow!!

Thanks so much :) I love her work so much too, and she seemed like a really interesting person as well.
