The first being printed by a black transsexual model and the second a couple of famous black actors as protagonists of the reinterpretation. Iconographic analysis is used as a methodological tool to interpret the component elements of the photographs. It is concluded that the images bring new repre-sentations of the black and transsexual community, in addition to giving new meanings to the pictures through the choice of their prominent or nullifying elements.
