Bill + Maria Lipkind [...] (Siskind 1950s?)

Bill + Maria Lipkind, Alice + Leo Yamin, Aaron Siskind
Siskind, Aaron, 1950s [?]

Written on back:

"Photo by Siskind
M.V. [Marthas's Vinneyard?]"

"Bill + Maria Lipkind
Alice + Leo Yamin
Aaron Siskind"

This photo was published by Lima Filho (2017), who misidentifies Lipkind as the male sitting to the left, who is actually the photographer Aaron Siskind. Leo Yamin is the one standing. Lipkind is in fact the gentleman sitting at the right, in a striped shirt. Compare this picture with Bill Lipkind 32 (1960). Lima Filho also seems to misidentify (as ‘Washington, USA’) the place where the photo was taken: the letters “M.V.” in the back of the photograph clearly refer to Martha’s Vineyard, the group’s usual summer rendezvous.
