Did You Know?

Ruth Orkin often photographed whatever she could see out of the windows of the apartments she lived in.

Description

One can imagine Orkin feeling a kinship to this dog. Resembling a grumpy old man, it leans on the windowsill and watches the world go by content to remain inside his home.
