| Photo by Dina Litvosky for Helen Rosner's "What We're Buying for the Quarantine" |
One of the best New Yorker photos of the year (so far) is Dina Litovsky’s picture of an interesting looking woman named Jessica West, wearing sunglasses, surgical mask, and a beautiful textured brown-tan-orange sweater, standing in front of pallets loaded with boxes, bottles, and other subtly colorful items. The photo is one among several excellent Litovskys illustrating Helen Rosner’s “What We’re Buying for the Quarantine” (newyorker.com, March 18, 2020.
Litovsky first impinged my consciousness with her striking kubaneh-in-a-flowerpot photo for Silvia Killingsworth’s "Tables For Two: Timma" (The New Yorker, October 26, 2015). That one made my “Best of 2015: Photos.”
Her sharp capture of Phil Young for Nicolas Niarchos’s “Tables For Two: Lenox Saphire” (January 2, 2017) was on my “Best of 2017: Photos.”
And I wouldn’t be surprised if her “Jessica West” appears on my “Best of 2020” list.
Excellent work, Dina!
