Patience Poni visiting her parents, Soweto, 1972

Photographer David Goldblatt, whose grandparents had fled the persecution of Jews in Lithuania around 1893, was known for his images of life during Apartheid in South Africa. Goldblatt rarely photographed the violence and brutality of the situation, prefering to focus on the subtle injustices of everyday life.
