It is the intersection of Fifth Avenue and 57th Street in New York City ca. 1954. In the center of the intersection are two women dressed in black clothing. Helen Keller is on the left; she is holding the arm of her secretary and companion Polly Thompson, who is on the right. The famous jewelry store Tiffany’s can be seen in the distance behind Keller and Thomson.
