This is an arguable artistic point; imagine "Morning in the park" cropped tightly to the se?orita and her shadow back to the right. The tightness would be similar to the Feinenger image of the woman at the corner of a building so the se?orita is walking out of the frame with the background including the people on the bench almost disappearing into the blur. Seeing the artists vision and then imagining the situation in different frames is why art is so important for a culture and for a culture to communicate to others outside what it is to be inside.
