 In this black and white photograph taken late in her life, Dr. Melinda Germann is seated in a wicker chair on a porch. She is wearing a print summer dress with a scarf and a necklace about her neck. Her facial expression is calm, but tired. Her eyelids and mouth are a little droopy. Her hands rest comfortably together on her lap. Behind her stand her daughter and son, also physicians. Hildegarde, wearing a white short-sleeved blouse and a camisole, looks without much expression to the right of the photographer. Aldo, the son, also stands behind his mother. He is wearing a light suit, white shirt, and a short necktie. His face behind his glasses reveals little emotion. | |
