Identical Twins, Roselle, New Jersey, 1967

Photographs

Identical Twins, Roselle, New Jersey, 1967 is a photograph by the American photographer Diane Arbus that has become the image most closely associated with her body of work. It was chosen as the cover illustration for Diane Arbus, published by Aperture in 1972, for many years her only retrospective monograph, and embodies a culmination of the strongest themes in her work: her fascinations with children, aberrance and identity.
