What makes a great photograph

From the series The Table of Power, Jacqueline Hassink 1994

My reading - This is a boardroom for an American car manufacturer. Their top of the range vehicle, an iconic sportscar is the only adornment to a very austere room. In this makes place decisions are made that effect the lives of hundreds of workers employed in their manufacture. Showing the room devoid of it's users lends starkness and quiet that would be lacking if the users were included.

Val Williams - quiet and solid, the room waits for powerful men and women to occupy it.
