Lucia
A professional photographer, Lucia Moholy taught her husband her craft and worked with him closely, developing and printing his pictures. She probably printed this photograph and was most certainly involved in the more complex process of creating a negative version of it, enabling a further exploration of the image's graphic and abstract qualities.
