Skier overlooking valley--Sports c. 1941

"Skier overlooking valley--Sports" is a photograph by Robert Frank, taken around 1941. This black and white photograph captures a skier looking out over a snowy valley in the Alps. The image is composed in a way that emphasizes the vastness of the landscape, with the skier appearing small in comparison to the mountains and valley below. Frank's use of black and white emphasizes the stark beauty of the winter scene and the solitude of the skier. This photograph is a great example of Frank's early work, which often featured landscapes and everyday people.
