I bet there are others, like me, who think, "This looks like an #EdwardHopper #painting." But it's not. It's a #photo of the Third Avenue Elevated Train, #NYC, ca. 1951, taken by #photographer #EstherBubley, who turned to color slide film to study the #ThirdAvenueEl, which was torn down in 1955.

A woman still dressed in her work attire leans on her dresser as she listens intently to a murder mystery on her radio. An overflowing waste basket sits on the floor of her boardinghouse room. This is one of the images in Bubley’s photo essay on “Life in a boardinghouse in Washington, D.C.,” which she photographed in her sister’s building in 1943.

Tending a grave: On Memorial Day in 1943, two Black women work on a gravesite at Arlington National Cemetery near Washington, D.C. They kneel on the ground as they plant flowers and straighten the small flag on the grave of their loved one. Rows of simple granite headstones cross the ground in the background. Esther Bubley made the photograph.
