Richard Billingham took this photo in 1995. It was part of a series about his family. His alcoholic father often appeared drunk or asleep in the pictures. Billingham started the project in art school. He kept going at university, aiming to paint from the photos later. He called it “working like therapy.” See more of his family photos at the Victoria and Albert Museum.
