Robert Redford’s body of work contains “a theme so pronounced that once you notice it, you see it everywhere in his films: the hollowness of an easy victory," Sally Jenkins writes.

His decades of work explored one theme over and over: the hollowness of the easy victory.

another pretty shot of Redford in The Natural. one of my favorites in any movie, looks like a lost Edward Hopper painting.
Redford slouched in a chair outside the train station - in full shadow from the shoulders up. he's wearing a a hat, a dark brown leather jacket, brown slacks, brown leather shoes, a brick-colored tie against a brick backdrop. he is slightly off center in the frame, a camel-colored leather duffel sits beside him on the ground on the right.

a few of Caleb Deschanel's astonishingly beautiful shots of Robert Redford in The Natural
Redford at a slightly canted angle wearing a baseball cap and a Knights uniform, backlit by a giant explosion and sparks closeup on Redford, who is sitting down, wearing a hat, his face and shoulders striped by shadows & light filtering through a window's blinds on the right side of the frame Redford standing in a locker room, a few other baseball players behind him. he's leaning against a column on the right side of the frame, his other hand in his pocket. he's smiling slightly, wearing a Knights baseball/varsity jacket. light filters through windows above him, haloing him Redford seen from the side - his face turned away from us - wearing an argyle sweater vest over a striped collared shirt. he's outside, the background is out-of-focus trees during golden hour - the sun almost exactly in the middle of the frame, its light touching his shoulder
