The photograph I choose is by Angelo Merendino and it is a series of photographs that documents his wife’s battle with breast cancer. His wife Jennifer Merendino was diagnosed with breast cancer five months after marring in central park. The photograph was taken on September 30th, 2011. The series of photographs are in black and white. In the photograph you can see the married couple smiling at the camera with clown noses. The dominant impression seems to be blissful given the circumstances of the photograph. It’s clear that Jennifer Merendino is in a hospital bed given that she’s wearing a hospital gown and seems to be lying down on a bed. This photo is very emotion, although having cancer she’s smiling along side her husband; comforting each other.
