The available review is a poetic, reverent meditation on Bourke-White's Gandhi image, using a sea metaphor to explore calm, courage, and nonviolence. The reviewer awards the work a top rating and frames the photograph as quietly powerful. The language is lyrical and reflective, more evocation than formal critique.

For:Photography enthusiasts, students of photojournalism, readers interested in Gandhi and documentary imagery.

 That sea so calm, with skin clinging to bones out of necessity.
