Native Americans--New Mexico 1955

"Native Americans--New Mexico" (1955) is a photograph by Robert Frank, a renowned American photographer known for his candid and often unsettling depictions of American society. The photograph, part of his iconic book "The Americans", captures a group of Native Americans in New Mexico, their faces partially obscured by hats and a blanket. Frank's style, characterized by its stark black and white aesthetic and focus on everyday life, evokes a sense of anonymity and isolation, highlighting the social and cultural realities of Native American communities.
