Bridgeport, Connecticut 1941

"Bridgeport, Connecticut" is a 1941 photograph by Walker Evans, a prominent figure in American documentary photography. This black and white image captures a candid moment on a city street, showcasing three figures walking in a seemingly casual manner. The composition is typical of Evans's style, featuring a starkly lit scene with a focus on everyday details and the human condition. The woman in the center, with her package and a hint of weariness in her expression, embodies the working-class experience of the era. The photograph evokes a sense of anonymity and the rhythm of urban life in the early 20th century.
