Untitled (Ground View of Street)
c. 1970, printed 2008

A ground-level view of a suburban street with a focus on the textured asphalt in the foreground. A stop sign is visible on the right, with residential houses and leafless trees in the background under a cloudy sky. The image is framed with a white border, and there's a signature at the bottom right corner.
