A woman with smudged eyeliner and a single pigtail stares directly ahead

A black and white photograph featuring two men and one woman posing together. The man on the left has a full beard and mustache, wearing a dark suit with a striped shirt and a wide collar. The woman in the center is wearing a strapless black dress, large earrings, and a scarf tied around her neck, with her hand raised near her face. The man on the right is clean-shaven, sporting a dark suit with a white shirt and a striped tie, and has a floral pin on his lapel. All three individuals are looking directly at the camera with serious expressions.

A black and white photograph of a person with their head inside a birdcage, holding the cage with both hands. The image conveys a sense of confinement or restriction, with the bars of the cage obscuring parts of the person's face.

A black and white photograph of a woman reclining on a bed, surrounded by an eclectic mix of objects. She wears a dark turban adorned with flowers, large earrings, and a fur stole over a sequined dress. Her eyes are closed, and she holds a cigarette in one hand. Scattered around her are tarot cards, a doll, and a large portrait of a face. The setting is cluttered and appears to be in a bohemian-styled room.
