Edward Ruscha

Venice, Italy
1961

Three young women standing together, each with a distinct style of dress and hairstyle, reminiscent of mid-20th-century fashion. The woman on the left holds books under her arm, the center woman clasps her hands with a frog in them, and the woman on the right carries a jacket over her arm. They all appear to be smiling or laughing. The photo is overexposed, giving it a high-contrast, faded look.
