Spread from LIFE magazine, September 3, 1951; photography by Saul Leiter

From the magazine:

Saul Leiter, who is a young New York freelance photographer, spends a great deal of his time searching for incongruity. To him, the impeccably beautiful, seen in a certain way by the camera, can reveal startling ugliness, and the flatly ordinary will disclose an unexpected touch of the bizarre. One gray day while Leiter was walking along Fifth Avenue, he noticed a crowd of people clustered around the entrance of an enormous church. Impressed at once by the watchful impassivity of the bystanders outside and the grave dignity of those who had witnessed the ceremony inside, he took the striking photographs which are shown on these pages. Leiter’s somber results suggest that the occasion he photographed was a funeral. It was a wedding.
