Abstract

There is a powerful and everlasting impact on modern photography that comes from the surrealist era, which was a revolutionary force in the visual arts. Following the complex links between Surrealism's fantastical ideas and the lens-based creativity of modern photographers, this research paper takes readers on an enthralling tour of art history. As we explore this mesmerising terrain, we expose the surrealist features that have shaped and redefined modern photography, providing an entry point into the strange and fantastical.
