really excellent image quality, just as long as you are prepared to

a huge amount of detail, and its DNG raw files are impressively
malleable when it comes to recovering deep shadow details that are
essentially black in the JPEG files. Leica’s JPEG processing isn’t great,
though, with crude sharpening and overly strong noise reduction that
destroys detail at high ISOs, alongside distinctly subdued colour.

Final Analysis
Roger Hicks considers…
‘Lily, Schönhauser Allee’, 2009, by Sibylle Bergemann
© SIBYLLE BERGEMANN
t is often difficult, or even
impossible, to analyse exactly why a
particular picture is so compelling.
This is not the same as saying that
you can’t find all kinds of reasons: more,
it’s a question of disentangling them. Also,
what the photographer intended in the
picture is not necessarily what we see in it.
Here, for example, I might start with
the simple truth that this is a beautiful
picture of a beautiful woman: one whose
closed eyes, furthermore, instantly render
her mysterious. Then I could add that
the picture uses a device that appears in
many of my favourite paintings and
photographs: strong chiaroscuro, light
against dark. Looking more closely, I
notice the shabbiness of the wall and table,
massively contrasting with the delicacy
of Lily’s skin and the freshness of her
dress. But the seat does not seem worn
out. Why not? No matter – the contrasts
and differences pose more questions.
Why is she there? What is she doing?
What is she thinking about?
Some time ago, on the letters page,
someone parodied my weakness for asking
questions in this column. I make no
apologies. Art often raises questions, and
I see it as my job to articulate them and
to provoke thought. I would be foolish to
pretend to provide definitive answers. But
in the process of asking myself questions,
I can usually come up with some partial
answers – and, at the same time, with
more questions and (I hope) more answers,
even if once again they are only partial.
Inevitably, as soon as I saw this picture
I wanted to learn more about the
photographer. I learned she was born
in Berlin in 1941, she was raised and
began her working life as a freelance
photographer in East Germany, and she
died in 2010. A reason for the shabby
background immediately presents itself:
improbably, she is best known for both
fashion photography and reportage.
Then I learned that Lily is her daughter.
This raised goose pimples on my arms. picture. It reminded me very much of the simply Sibylle Bergmann. The only

Roger Hicks has been writing about photography since 1981 and has published more than three dozen books on the subject, many in partnership with his wife Frances Schultz (visit his new website
at www.rogerandfrances.eu). Every week in this column Roger deconstructs a classic or contemporary photograph. Next week he considers an image by Nick Meyer
