■ "Mrs. Merryman's Collection" by Anne Sophie Merryman

This is a collection of photographs of the old postcard collection that an English woman named Anne-Marie Merryman collected before her death and inherited by her granddaughter, Anne Sophie Merryman.

A woman born in the 1920s who enjoyed the feeling of traveling the world through postcard images, and another woman whose postcard collection influenced her relationship with her own history and future. The postcard collection forms the intertwining of two lives.
