Lucybelle Crater and close friend Lucybelle Crater in the grape arbor by Ralph Eugene Meatyard (c. 1970)

The photograph titled “Lucybelle Crater and close friend Lucybelle Crater in the grape arbor” is a black-and-white image created by Ralph Eugene Meatyard. It belongs to “The Family Album of Lucybelle Crater” series. In the photograph, two figures are standing close to one another in what appears to be a grape arbor. One figure is wearing a wide-brimmed hat, glasses, and a light-colored shirt, while the other figure has their face turned towards the first figure, with an exaggerated expression and is clad in a striped dress. Both figures are wearing masks that completely obscure their real faces, giving the image an eerie, surreal quality. The background features leafy vines supported by wooden structures, contributing to the rustic setting of the image.
