Susan Sontag at Halsman’s studio, New York, May 1967 -by Philippe Halsman
Still, there is something predatory in the act of taking a picture. To photograph people is to violate them, by seeing them as they never see themselves, by having knowledge of them they can never have; it turns people into objects that can be symbolically possessed. Just as the camera is a sublimation of the gun, to photograph someone is a sublimated murder - a soft murder, appropriate to a sad, frightened time.
— Susan Sontag, in ‘On Photography’ (1977)from magnum
