The examples above fall neatly into that company.
In my insular, unique, and wholly personal opinion, in order to be truly successful photographs should be two things: 1) Created with intent, and 2) Photographed in B/W.
Yes, I break both rules more often than I follow them. And, I do think those exceptions actually prove the rule...in that my few successful 'fine art' [as opposed to commercial] images have all met both criteria.
So why post these today?...'cause they're pretty.
