Larry Fink

Broadway, New York City
1961

A black and white photograph capturing a candid street scene with three individuals. The focus is on a person in the foreground carrying a large stack of newspapers, with their back to the camera. In the middle ground, another individual is glancing over their shoulder, making eye contact with the camera. All are wearing hats, suggesting a cooler climate or a past era. The background is blurred, with hints of a fence and indistinct figures, adding to the bustling atmosphere of the setting.
