“Deep South, Untitled (Bridge on Tallahatchie).”

Ms. Mann went in search

of the markers of a murder

that had disturbed her from childhood.

This 1998 photograph shows the bridge in Mississippi

from which Emmett Till’s weighted body

is believed to have been thrown.

From left:

Virginia, Emmett and Jessie.

“The fact is that these are not my children,”

Mann says of her photographs.

“They are figures

on silvery paper slivered out of time.

They represent my children

at a fraction of a second on one particular afternoon

with infinite variables of light,

expression, posture, muscle tension,

mood, wind and shade.” Sally Mann

Sally Mann’s Exposure

What an artist captures,

what a mother knows and what the public sees

can be dangerously different things.
