Photo-a-Day - June 2013 - Day 19: Inspired by Man Ray

Man Ray (1890-1976) was an American modernist artist who spent most of his career in Paris, France. He was a significant contributor to the Dada and Surrealist movements.  Several of his photographs were of a woman with a mask.

While at the Tower of London, I took several photographs of their displays of the death masks of the kings through history.  What I had forgotten, was that in one the reflection of a fellow tourist superimposed itself over one of the masks.

I'd say that surreal enough to quality as inspired by May Ray.
