Untitled (Tomb and Weeds)
1973

A black and white photograph depicting the ruins of an old brick structure overgrown with vegetation, including tall grasses and shrubs. The wall shows signs of decay and weathering, with parts of the brickwork exposed and some areas covered in moss or climbing plants. The surrounding area appears to be a grassy field, and the sky is overcast, contributing to the image's somber and abandoned atmosphere.
