Robert Frank

Robert Frank is an important figure in American photography and film. His most notable work the 1958 book titled The Americans was influential and earned Frank comparisons to a modern-day de Tocqueville. It was fifty years ago that Robert Frank released his iconic and historical work The Americans. Robert Frank’s work is now widely considered an important intimate peak inside small-town America but originally it was not met with open arms by all- at the time of release many of the images were considered controversial while other critics just outright dismissed his work as a blurry mess of nothingness.
