This book is titled 'Women and Other Women' by Hildegarde Hawthorn. These are photos of the thirteenth and fourteenth pages, the front and back of the fourth photo. I'm hand-sewing the photographs into the book, correlating the image with the text on the page. (The text is painted over, but is not opaque.) When you flip through the book, you see the image, the stitchings, and the backside's stitchings, which are sometimes more interesting than the fronts.
Sewing is a woman's task, as is the time spent sewing. White paint is used on house interiors to cover up things that shouldn't be seen. Women are constantly in relation to Other Women.
This outlined text says, "the children of a generation we shall not live to see."
