Nina 1936

"Nina" is a black and white photograph by Nathan Lerner, taken in 1936. Lerner, a prominent American photographer, was born in 1913 and died in 1997. The image depicts a young girl, likely in her early teens, standing against a brick wall. Her expression is somber, and she gazes directly at the camera. The photograph is known for its powerful sense of realism and its evocative portrayal of the subject's inner world. "Nina" is a poignant example of Lerner's documentary style and his focus on the lives of everyday people.
