Chicago 1971

"Chicago" (1971) is a black and white photograph by Mikki Ferrill, depicting a woman reclining on a couch. The woman is the focal point, with her relaxed posture and gaze directed away from the camera. The composition emphasizes domesticity and the interior space. The inclusion of a coffee table adorned with photographs creates a sense of personal history and intimacy, characteristic of Ferrill's photographic style which often explored the lives of African Americans in Chicago.
