Four Sisters, 40 Photos: Capturing 40 Years of Priceless Memories

1977

"Nixon uses black-and-white photography to capture the passage of time and the changing relationships between the sisters. The simplicity of the black-and-white style gives the series a timeless feel, drawing attention to the subtle details of aging, like the soft lines on their faces and shifts in their posture.

The composition is simple and focuses solely on the sisters. Their expressions are serious but not overly staged, giving the photos an honest, unfiltered quality. Each sister has her own unique look, but the close framing of the shot highlights their strong bond."
