Fore ground - a pot and a mug
Mid ground - a cupboard and a woman
Back ground - an empty jar and dish washing liquid
Center of focus - the woman
Framing - in the kitchen, woman wearing apron, kitchen supplies
Pose - woman looking over her shoulder nervously with her hand on her stomach like she feels sick
Gaze - not looking at the camera, looking outside the frame (looking at door, someone coming in to the room or someone coming out of the room)
Expression - not happy, a little worried
Viewpoint - slightly low
Depth - the depth was shown in the foreground with the pot looking very large, background looking very light
Everything in the picture seems to come to a stereotype of where a woman's place is meant to be - in the kitchen. The hand on her stomach could mean that she is pregnant - a 50's shot of a woman's role - as a housewife and mother. The woman is looking over her shoulder away from the camera. It appears like she is trying to hide the fact that she's glancing at something she isn't suppiosed to. Also her kitchen space is very confined which you can see because the kitchen supplies are all clashed together making it look like a very small place. It looks like she is not happy or comfortable as a house wife - if you look at her posture and tiny space.
