In the August 13, 1951 edition, LIFE published a “Romance in Photographic Fiction.” - “On these pages LIFE presents, as a venture into photographic fiction, the story of a man and a girl falling in love. All of the pictures taken as they might have been seen through the eyes of the man. The captions were written as he himself might have spoken…” This image appears at the very end of the story with the following caption: “Near the end of summer, after we had been apart for many weeks, I met her unexpectedly at a beach with her new admirer. She was enjoying herself, I thought, all too obviously, and it was all too obvious to myself that I was still in love with her. Perhaps I always will be.” (Leonard McCombe—The LIFE Picture Collection/Getty Images) #1950s #lovestory #tbt

There’s something cool, even implicative and spooky about being named after a girl in a movie. Something sort of unforced, like a quirk I get to keep but was uninvolved in forming. It’s as though my love of film predates me, is beyond my control, and here I am, the product not just of my parents but also of their taste. Because the Durga I’m named after is the Durga in Pather Panchali (1955)—the first installment in Satyajit Ray’s Apu Trilogy, and one of the greatest films ever made.

Twenty Centuries of Mexican Art (1940)

Curated by three of Mexico’s leading art historians along with the painter Miguel Covarrubias, “Twenty Centuries of Mexican Art” had originally been intended for a French museum, but was rerouted to New York due to the risk posed by shipping precious artworks by sea during World War II. This unparalleled exhibition featured some 5,000 examples of ancient, colonial, folk, and modern Mexican art. It filled the entire Museum and even extended into the courtyard, where MoMA staged an open-air Mexican market with stalls selling ceramics, leather goods, and other crafts, flanked by a series of giant pre-colonial statues. Perhaps the central attraction of this lush presentation was the presence of muralist José Clemente Orozco, who worked over a period of 10 days on the 9 x 18" fresco Dive Bomber and Tank as crowds watched. The exhibition has a lasting legacy at MoMA: among its holdings of Mexican modernism are works by 54 of the artists represented.
