Rhyming Torr and Jones

I haven’t done any visual rhymes in a while, so I’ll do a couple today as an lazy way into the holiday weekend.

The first one pairs one of my favorite  paintings at SFMOMA — Helen Torr’s 1927ish Windows and a Door — with a Pirkle Jones photograph Garden Detail from 1947. Windows is on view now in the painting-and-sculpture galleries. The Jones is on view in the photo galleries (and after the jump).

(Incidentally, I don’t mean to suggest that Jones (who is a Californian) saw or knew of the Torr. SFMOMA acquired the Torr in 1980.)
