Russian Ball, New York City 1977

Larry Fink's 1977 black and white photograph, "Russian Ball, New York City", captures a candid moment at a social gathering. The composition, framed in a low-key lighting scheme, features two women engaged in conversation, while a third figure, partially obscured by shadows, seems to be listening intently. The photograph's intimate and naturalistic style is a characteristic of Fink's approach to capturing the social fabric of New York City.
