DescriptionThis is one of 41 black and white photographs depicting various sites around Virginia Beach, VA.Label TextUntitled, ca. 1909–24 Gelatin silver print (photograph) Mann viewed the white sand dunes of Virginia Beach and the North Carolina Outer Banks as blank canvases with endless photographic potential. The bold and twisting forms of dead trees often caught his eye, and he worked at times of day when long shadows could echo and amplify these strange and magical shapes.
