Note du spécialiste

This work is one of two images printed by Arbus in this small format and sent to various friends at the time of the first presentation of her works at the Museum of Modern Art, New York: the ‘New Documents’ exhibition of 1967. On the reverse of this print, Arbus urges her friend, identified as ‘Chrystia’, to come to the museum’s main floor, west wing to see the ‘roomful’ of her photographs.
