Louis Faurer

14th Street/Horn and Hardart, New York City, NY
1947, printed 1981

A black and white photograph capturing a candid moment in a diner where a man in a leather jacket and sunglasses is sitting at a table, intently looking at a woman with her back to the camera. The table has a few items on it, including a plate with a partially eaten meal and a salt shaker. The setting appears casual and intimate, with a slightly blurred background suggesting a bustling environment.
