Orphans of the Road Possibly 1990 - 1994

"Orphans of the Road" is a black and white photograph by Jim Goldberg depicting a lone figure, their silhouette partially obscured by shadow, seated in a diner, with a reflection of a man standing behind the counter. The scene captures a sense of isolation, juxtaposed with the presence of another customer and a family, suggesting a complex social dynamic. Goldberg is known for his documentary style, often focusing on marginalized communities, and this photograph embodies his interest in the complexities of human experience.
