A silhouette is the image of a person, an object or scene consisting of the outline and a featureless interior, with the silhouetted object usually being black.
Traditionally, a silhouette is a form of artwork, the term originating in the 18th century and applied to portraits or other pictorial representations cut from thin black card. Silhouette images may be created in any artistic media, but the tradition of cutting portraits from black card has continued into the 21st century.
Silhouette photography is extremely bold and striking example of the art-form. It’s amazing how much can be evoked through a silhouette, despite the lack of subject detail. The black outline seems to really capture the essence of the subject captured.
