Annie Oakley

I believe that Annie Leibovitz included Annie Oakley in her exhibit because Annie Oakley was very into teaching women how to be strong and be proud to do things. She gave shooting lessons to women, she liked to say, “anything a man can do a woman can practically as well". She liked to sponsor the idea that woman should have the strange to do things they want to and not be afraid to try new things. I think that Leibovitz included her into her exhibition to show the idea that woman should have strength and Annie Oakley portrayed this well.

The trip to the gallery was very useful and vital because it allowed me and my classmates to see all different types of work of professional pictures/portraits. I got to think of other ideas to use myself in the future as I am taking pictures. Being exposed to other types of art expands people’s ideas of what else is out there and to take advantage of.
