It shows a white crowd at the lynching of two black men in Marion, Indiana.  Marshall digitally re-works the photograph, rendering it fuzzy (in a process called ‘ghosting’).  He sets the photos of three women from the crowd in lockets with chains, giving a double meaning to the word ‘accessories’.  These women looked to the camera.  By focusing on the three women instead of the black victims of the lynching, Marshall transforms the commemorative function of the original documentary photograph.  Here he gives this violent act form in a wry sort of heirloom or memento, passing down both the history of the event as well as three ‘accessories’ to it. \r\n"},{"locale":"nl","short_description":"","description":"Marshall baseerde zich voor *Heirlooms and accesoires* (2002) op een beroemde [foto](http://s3.amazonaws.com/mhka_ensembles_production/assets/public/000/018/997/large/day2ex1_marion_lynching.jpg?1380443264) uit 1930. Deze foto toont een witte menigte die het lynchen van twee zwarte mannen in Marion (Indiana) aanschouwen. Marshall bewerkte de foto digitaal door hem heel wazig te maken; een proces genaamd \"ghosting\". De kettingen die hij er aan toe voegde, verwijzen naar de accessoires van drie vrouwen die de misdaad bijwoonden. Deze vrouwen hebben zich afgekeerd van de lynchpartij om te kijken naar de fotograaf. Door te focussen op de vrouwelijke toeschouwers in plaats van op de zwarte slachtoffers van deze geweldpleging transformeert Marshall de herdenkingsfunctie van de originele foto. Marshall geeft hier een gewelddadige gebeurtenis vorm in een verwrongen soort erfstuk of memento, versterkt door foto's en steentjes.
