Times Square, Peggy Ann #1
1956, printed c. 1975

A black and white photograph capturing a reflective glass door of the "Peggy Ann Dress Shop" with a man in a fedora hat visible through the glass, seemingly standing inside the shop. The reflection shows a blurred hand pressing against the glass and city lights, creating a layered, ghostly effect.
