Description

Antonio Gómez Margolles found this image at the home of a friend who had inherited a house sometime earlier. In her house, the friend kept a room she rarely entered, full of objects from the past. Among them was this photograph of a couple, unknown to her but who were likely her long-lost relatives.

 

Antonio Gómez Margolles encontró esta imagen en la casa de una amiga que había heredado la propiedad poco tiempo antes. En una habitación a la que rara vez entraba, se amontonaban objetos del pasado. Entre ellos, descubrió una fotografía de una pareja desconocida para ella, pero que probablemente fueran familiares suyos, fallecidos tiempo atrás.
