Untitled (Golfer)
c. 1940

A black and white photograph of a man in mid-swing playing golf indoors. He is wearing a long-sleeved shirt, trousers, and dark shoes with white socks. The man is focused on a golf ball at his feet, holding the club just after making contact with the ball. The background is plain and nondescript, emphasizing the golfer's action.
