The art: Tina Fiveash, Twilight Lovers, 1994.
The news: “Support for Same-Sex Marriage is Up,” by Andrew Rosenthal for NYTimes.com.

Artist’s note: “Inspired by ‘Girl’s Own’ annuals and the Australian Women’s Weekly magazine from the 1950s, Stories for Girls is a tongue-in-cheek attempt to recreate missing lesbian photographic history from an era where homosexuality was a criminal offense, and lesbians were forced to remain in the closet and keep their relationships hidden from society.”
