Sally Mann, from AT TWELVE, 1988.
"This child was distinctly reluctant to stand closer to her mother's boyfriend. This seemed strange to me, as it was their peculiar familiarity that had provoked this photograph in the first place. Looking through the ground glass I fretted over cropping her elbow but she would not budge toward him.
Several months later her mother shot him in the face with a .22. She testified that while she worked nights at a local truckstop he was 'at home partying and harassing my daughter.' The child put it to me somewhat more directly. I look at this photograph now with a jaggy chill of realization."
