1958

A black and white photograph capturing a street scene with three individuals: a woman in a striped top and skirt walking to the left, an older woman standing in the center facing right, and a man in a suit leaning against a dark wall in the background. The contrast between light and shadow is stark, highlighting the figures against a mostly dark backdrop.
