Framed People Silhouettes

Silhouettes are representations of people standing in front of a light source, or a light background, so they are represented as a shadow while their background is colorful. The silhouette has no features in its interior, but exterior representation has a strong aesthetic meaning. Framed silhouette images can be illustrated by different postures of different people, animals, nature or landscapes. They are not just good for showing the raw movement and positions, but by showing different postures, they also emanate the emotion of that person in the current moment. Silhouettes were created from cut out pieces of paper that were put on a background and framed. The term silhouette was started to be used in 19th century. The origin of the word came from a name of the French finance minister Etienne de Silhouette that was associated with things done cheaply.
