Diane Arbus



I found this particular photograph, by Diane Arbus, to be most intriguing because it is unlike any photograph I have ever seen before. I would be less interested if this was a painting/drawing because it would not necessarily mean there is an actual man like this in the world. It appears as if the male on the left is a giant. I assume the woman and man to the right are parents and the giant is their son. The giant is hunched over, looking quite uncomfortable. I believe he is hunched over because when he stands up straight, his head touches the ceiling. After researching, I found that this photo is actually a Jewish giant at home with his parents in the Bronx.
