Hello,

Today, we did a recap about Vivian Maier’s self-portrait:

Winter self-portrait in New York City

The document is an old black and white self-portrait.

It was taken in February 1955, in New York City by Vivian Maier.

The scene takes place in the city because there are buildings.

It takes place in winter because the trees don't have any leaves.

In the middle, there is a man. We can't see his face, we can only see his back. He is wearing a jacket, a cap and gloves.

He is carrying a mirror. Maybe he's moving out.

In the mirror, there is the reflection of the photographer. It's a woman, she's wearing a hat and a coat. She has a camera around her neck. Actually, she's behind the man.

In the foreground, on the left, there are blankets in a truck.

In the background, there is a woman climbing the stairs.
