The image populaceipulates our emotions by drawing us to the subject through the use of an ext terminate depth of field. The rule of thirds applies to this photo with the mother in the quarter of the image with the baby in the centre and the doctor who has delivered the baby at the top of the image. There is an intense motiveless base the doctor, which gives a experience of an angelic / holy person this makes you think that the baby is a ease up from a higher presence.

A wide angle has been used, which has caused an unusual perspective in the picture. The feet take up a large part of the frame and appear to nearly touch the celling.A dramatic give ear has been created by using a wide angle lens and the use of light adds a categorisation of attractive tones on the subject. The empty room gives a sense of being alone.Brandt is considered one of the 20th century s coarseest British photographers.
