Title: Close-up view of dog: Riviera Beach, Florida


Personal Author: Foster, Charles C.


Date: Photographed in May 1939.


Physical descrip: 1 photoprint: sepia; 14 x 11 in.


Series Title: (Print collections.)


General Note: Accompanying note: "8. The fat, lazy little dog never leaves his master's side and consequently suffers from lack of exercise."


Biographical note: In the summer of 1939, Works Projects Administration (WPA) photographer and artist Charles C. Foster was assigned to take photographs for Florida Writers Project (FWP) writer Veronica Huss' profile of the "Conchs" (Bahamian immigrants) of Riviera Beach. Armed with his Reflex-Korelle single-lens camera and four rolls of 12 exposure black and white film, Foster spent the day photographing Veronica and her subjects - immigrants from the Bahamas, who were derisively referred by locals as "Conchs". While the book was never published, the WPA's Florida Art Project used the images for a traveling exhibit titled "http://www.floridamemory.com/PhotographicCollection/photo_exhibits/wpa/photographs.cfm%22 that toured the nation between 1939 and 1943.
