                                    Saul Bass 

  • Saul Bass is recognised easily because of his iconic style which is depicted here, as he often uses bold shapes. 
  • Demonstrated in this picture and many of his others, Saul uses a very limited colour pallet, mostly consisting of (black,red,white and orange).
  • Saul here uses the background lines of colours to divide sections of the bird, this allows the viewer to review each part precisely. It could also be a metaphor for thanks"killing".
  • The image is 2D resulting in limited texture.
  • Bass uses light and dark tones here to show the turkey, he used black on bright orange which shows the sharp transition and line.
