Fran’s Story

From Shanghangzhoi, China to Park Slope, Brooklyn

Brooklyn artist Nina Talbot weaves elements of cultural heritage into her extraordinary portraits of immigrant shopkeepers and families in Brooklyn, with an eye for the visual elements of the setting that evoke the country of origin, and a keen interest in the ways their lives intersect with history.

In “Fran’s Story,” Talbot’s imagery tells the story of several generations of Chinese immigrants.
