Born into this shows my grandfather revisiting his childhood home in 1995.

​

He grew up there in the 1930-40s with his parents and six siblings. It was a poor household, disciplined and tidy. This picture was taken by my grandmother when he entered the house for the first time in over 50 years.

 

The photograph has been divided into three separate images to fit the borrowed format of old movie posters, so called stolpaffischer.
