A study in mid-century modern aesthetic featuring my mother reading fashion magazines on the original 1953-era furniture that my parents  bought for their Levittown, Pennsylvania starter home. I am the little girl watching her read.
I like this photo because of the way the afternoon sun streams in through the floor to ceiling window of the living room, the fifties trendiness of her decor, and the Leave It To Beaver elegance of the way she is dressed in it. My father took the photo with an Argus 75 box camera. This was scanned from a print. View full size.
