Selected Reviews

“Arthur Jacob’s photographic art possess a glowingly rhythmic quality that is at once beautiful and
intriguing. The floral images are breathtaking in their depiction of flowers that are presented as
natural art, each petal complementing the others in a finely wrought composition. Some of the
flowers on a black background are standalone natural portraits, while others fill their compositions
with elegant forms. Arthur Jacob also creates dynamic abstracts that infuse each work with fluid
form and design. The use of color in Arthur Jacob’s photography attests to his expertise of using
darks and lights, soft and bright, and subtle as well as brilliant hues. His monochromes especially
illustrate a mastery of form that gives depth to his images. “Arthur Jacob’s fine art photography is a
combination of the ability to envision a superb image with the skill to create the artwork.”
- Ellen Fisch, nationally recognized photographer

The bold colors and movements in his pieces are exciting and jubilant. By the use of his subject
matter and unique interpretation of them, the viewer is literally drawn into its magic! As an interior
designer, I love to use Arthur Jacob’s works to put the finishing touch to a specific space!

“Since his retirement in 2000. Arthur has dedicated his time to his craft, evolving, learning, experi-
menting and exploring the possibilities that the camera and computer avail to him. The results are
astonishingly detailed works that exploit color and imagery in an intelligent and beautiful way,
resulting in pieces that are both joyous and intriguing, graceful and potent, and possess such a
popular appeal that it is almost impossible to imagine a wall that they would not beautify.”
