Differences:
Cindy Sherman's photo was a self-portrait and did not have that much contrast. Her piece is meant to represent the woman stereotype on how a woman "belongs in the kitchen." There is space, movement, and line due to the items surrounding her.
Sebastio Salgado' piece is not a self portrait. It has has a larger depth of field and more contrast than Sherman's portrait. His piece shows the difficulties of the working class. There is also balance, due to the pillar's placement that is slightly off center, making it asymmetrical.
Similarities:
Both photos are in black and white and both show a "dark side" to society.
