Robert Frank, a giant in the photography world, passed away. Not too long ago I went to one of his shows in Manhattan and it was incredible to finally see his photos in person. They are perfect snapshots that seem almost too perfect to be taken as spontaneously.
Anyway, it’s an absolute shame, but he did live a long and creative life and that I admire. Here are a few related reads worth exploring if you’re interested in his work.
