Credit LineGift of Mr. and Mrs. James Agah, Class of 1989 (BBA)Subject matterIn this photograph, three young Cuban boys look down toward the lower-right corner. This triad all have brows furrowed and mouths open in evident dismay or disgust at something out of the frame of the photograph. The close-up view of the boys draws our attention to their intense facial expressions. The boy closest to the picture plan wears a tattered striped shirt, whereas his two companions have nothing covering their thin torsos. These children are likely out of doors on the street.
Physical DescriptionThree young boys look down toward the lower-left corner of the picture plane.
