The third image has the man directly facing the camera with his hand positioned horizontally in front of his mouth. In the last photo, he is covering his face with his hand while resting his elbow on the table.

  • This is a series of four black-and-white photographs arranged vertically. They all show the same urban street scene, although they each move incrementally farther down the street. The photograph on the top shows a sidewalk with tall arches on the right and a street on the left, more buildings beyond it. Far down the street in front of us, we can see a car parked next to the sidewalk. The second image appears to show us this same parked car, now seen up close. There are tall buildings on the left and right. Another car is parked behind this car, and father down the sidewalk is a street corner. The third photograph focuses on the second car and the street corner. Across the street, the sidewalk continues, with a street sign and distant, indistinct shapes on it. The last photograph seems to show us the end of this block, with stacks of tires on the right beside a brick building with the sign "Lee Tires" coming from it.
