This is a black and white photograph of a group of young men and women in various stages of dress posing for a group portrait in a room. The room has floral carpet and a chandelier hangs into the frame at upper right. A man in the front row holds a framed portrait. A child sits on an ottoman at lower right in the foreground.

Micaëla Gallery printout:"HOMECOMING / Los Altos Hills 1969 / In the hills, I was shooting a session with some medical students from Stanford and the Sexual Freedom League illustrating a Ken Kesey project. The basic premises was that the doctors spend all their time at school and in hospitals and are not exposed to the free life in the real world. Kesey felt that they were losing their sensitivity. Some of the participants are assembled for a group photograph at the end of the day."
