- Description
- The page is part of a scrapbook. On the left side, there is a photograph of a man and a woman in a gallery setting, with framed artwork visible in the background. Below the photograph, there is a text section titled "The discovery," which includes a paragraph about Peter Beard and his body being found. The right side of the page contains a handwritten note dated May 11, 2020, reflecting on the death of the author's mother and her passing on Mother's Day 22 years prior. The handwriting is in cursive and appears to be a personal reflection on the circumstances surrounding the author's mother's death and the COVID-19 pandemic.
