THE SCREAMING GIRL, Luigi Moretti, Italy, 1st half of the 19th century XX century
A portrait shot of a little girl screaming her discontent.
Her face wrinkles in a grimace of anger and disappointment. She is framed by unruly black locks of hair, contrasting with the wide white collar.
Small, transparent tears are oozing from under the tightly squeezed eyes. They flow down a small nose and plump cheeks, straight to the baby's outstretched mouth.
