daguerreotype, jumpsuit, with new dresses by Walter Crane,

 

  An Orange Jumpsuit for Lent

By JESSE WEGMAN

A part-time youth minister in Texas dresses like a convict for 40 days to highlight the obstacles inmates face on returning to society.

 

 

An epitaph for him? Yes, a photo he took in Mexico in 1963. It shows a small girl in a deserted street carrying a framed daguerreotype portrait of a beautiful and serene woman which is almost as large as the child. Both are about to disappear behind a tall fence.

The last second of visibility, but not of the woman's serenity or the girl's eagerness.
