Man in doorway, baby on porch floor, circa 1971

Item Information

• Description
  Caption by photographer (Kwilecki): "I have observed elsewhere that life in the quarters was lived mostly out of doors. To demonstrate how true that is, this man was making love to a woman just inside the open door when he saw me about to photograph his child on the porch. He is in the process of dressing himself as he looks dauntingly at me."
