Untitled
n.d.

A black and white photograph capturing a moment in a residential backyard where a child is climbing a ladder. The child is wearing a dress and has their back to the camera. In the background, an American flag is visible in a window, and various items such as a wheelbarrow and a bucket are scattered around the yard, suggesting outdoor activities or chores. The image has a vintage feel, with its monochrome tones and the composition giving a glimpse into a casual, domestic scene.
