To highlight the style's strenghts and features, we run each SREF code through a set of 16 standardized prompts—Midlibrary Benchmark. Each prompt demonstrates how the SREF ”behaves“ in various domains of visual art/applications.
Ilse Bing was a German-born photographer known for her pioneering work in the field of modernist photography. She gained prominence in the 1930s for her innovative use of the Leica camera, which allowed her to capture dynamic and spontaneous images. Bing's work is characterized by its experimental approach, often incorporating elements of surrealism and abstraction. Her photographs frequently explore themes of urban life, architecture, and the human form, reflecting the cultural and artistic movements of her time.
Ilse Bing's Midjourney style representation is marked by its surreal and dreamy qualities, focusing on black and white portraits with a moody and minimalist aesthetic. The compositions often incorporate geometric shapes and framing, with a particular emphasis on the eyes, creating an introspective and enigmatic atmosphere. The use of high contrast and soft focus enhances the mysterious and reflective mood, while the monochrome palette and textural surfaces add depth and intrigue. This style captures the essence of early 20th-century European avant-garde photography, echoing the works of artists like Man Ray and André Kertész.
Most promising Midjourney styles in our catalog get a special treatment in our Benchmarking Lab—we run each of such styles through a special test, consisting of nine standardized prompts. Want to learn more? Check out our special guide: Nine Prompts, Nine Stories →
