As a rule I agree with you.  However, I have photos of two brothers who are no longer with us on display.  Those photos remind me every day of how special and loved they were and still are.  I will always display them in a prominent location of our home.

I like them very much, very unique.  I like family pictures displayed, my home so I decorate to please myself and my family.  I also enjoy family pictures displayed in others homes.

Now I cannot get "Private Eyes" by Daryl Hall and John Oates out of my head.

Creepy comes to mind.

I don't like the photo strips of the eyes. Not sure why.
I don't think it's creepy - just strange. I'd rather see photos of their entire faces. 

 

Has anyone noticed the girl is holding a chicken? That's different. Maybe they raise them?

Unique and different, but not something I would display. 

 

I'd like to see something like this done with hands. Several generations of women or men in the same family, with the various hands showing their stage of life from the infants to the elderly. There is so much beauty in hands, when photographed well.

Re: Family 👁 👁 Portraits

I like it. I would want more of a close up of the eyes and centered more but it is different and certainly meaningful.

I love looking into my grandkids eyes so this would be perfect for me.

Not something I'd hang.
