Merriam-Webster defines diptych as: a picture or series of pictures (as an altarpiece) painted or carved on two hinged tablets, or: a work made up of two matching parts.
In photography, a diptych is a pair of photos that work better together than separately. (WikiAnswers)
If you type “diptych photography” into a search engine, you’ll see beautiful examples. It could tell a story, the pictures can compliment one another, they can contrast, it can be the same picture, it could be part of the same picture, it can be a different picture. But they must be the same size and from what I’ve seen, the same colors/tones, etc.
John Bernhard has some really nice black and white photographic diptychs.
Our assignment was to make a diptych using the “Loneliness” assignment photo plus a new one. So, here’s mine, and I got an A! That was our midterm! say yay!
