Description
Photograph of people gathered around a cross for a funeral in the desert, [s.d.]. A dozen men and women wearing suits, coats, and hats can be seen at right looking towards a wooden cross stuck in the sand at left. A woman can be seen seated in a director's style chair in front of the cross with her hands placed upon a piano-shaped object to the right of her. What appears to be a large book is propped up on the object. The ground in the foreground is composed of sand, while shrubs and mountains are visible in the background.
