New York City

1965

A black and white photograph capturing a street scene with an American flag displayed in a storefront window. The flag is partially obscured by a dark silhouette of a person standing behind the glass. Below the window is a vent, and on the sidewalk, one can see the lower half of a person's legs, wearing dark shoes and light-colored pants, suggesting they are standing inside the store. The composition is framed with a white border.
