This photo is by Jean Gaumy. It was taken in 1986.
When i studied this photo and did some research on it I came up with a few assumptions as to what i thought the meaning was behind the photo. I have bulleted some points that what I think the photo entails ;
- Seven years prior to this photo was the iranian revolution.
- Muslim religion the women are not aloud to work, drive cars which therefore makes men dominant.
- I take this photo to be of rebellious women that want to prove they can be just as powerful.
- These are a bunch of rebellious generation women.
- Some sort of training camp as they are in a rocky terrain that looks to be in the middle of nowhere.
I assumed this is what the photo is about, the fact of them having guns aiming in a rocky terrain give me the sign that they wanted to be just as dominant as the men in the muslim religion.
