cavetocanvas: Weegee, Human Head Cake Box Murder, c. 1940 From the Metropolitan Museum of Art: It is hard to decide which of the several mysteries contained in this macabre photograph is the most bizarre: the murder to which the title alludes, the headless bodies standing flat-footedly around a bodyless head, the “scriptboy” who enters at upper left, how the police photographer can be both rooted to the spot and levitating above it, why he wears his hat as he works, or where Weegee is standing. -- source link
