In July, Barry Goldstein sent us formal portraits of delegates, protesters, and other attendees at the 2016 Republican National Convention. At the Democratic National Convention, where we were denied press credentials, he turned his lens on the demonstrations outside the arena. Below are a few of our favorite images from his portfolio.

THIS WEEK’S ARCHIVE PICK
Night Train to Gijón
By Clellan Coe
Slogging up the East Coast on Amtrak is one thing; taking a romantic night ride in a sleeper car is a completely different kind of pleasure. If you haven’t experienced such a journey (or especially if you have), read about Clellan Coe’s trip through northern Spain to meet her boyfriend’s family. A stop at a village station along the way leads to a late-night meal and a new appreciation for the intricacies of language.
