Female Half Figure, Lucille Douglass, charcoal
See original frame record 2016.1, nail holes on back of frame and on back of stretcher match.
A multimedia collage featuring multiple photographs. The composition is divided into three sections composed primarily of black-and-white collaged photos of a field of daisies. The center column has a newspaper clipping of an illustration of a gun. The gun is pointed to the left and words, though illegible, are visible.
This black and white photograph represents a number of people in an unidentifiable location (possibly a church). The bodies of five figures in the back row are captured, though their heads are outside of the frame of the image. In the front row there are four seated figures, all women. Each woman wears a dress or a top and skirt, and the second from the left—dressed in all white—holds a baby also in white. This woman’s mouth is open. A partial fifth figure in this row can be seen at the right of the image.
