Johnson took these picture while working for Magnum Photo around 1950. The petrol can and the shipwreck are leftovers of the war and, as traces in the sand, remind us of the immediate past. Die Serie entstand während Johnsons Zeit als Magnum Fotograf um 1950. Ein Benzinkanister und ein Schiffswrack erinnern als Überbleibsel des Krieges und als Spuren im Sand an die ummittelbare Vergangenheit.
