Railroad Yard and Houses 1935

"Railroad Yard and Houses" is a black and white photograph by Walker Evans, taken in 1935. The image depicts a railroad yard with several buildings and houses in the background. The photograph is a prime example of Evans's documentary style, which aimed to capture the realities of everyday life in America during the Great Depression. The photograph is notable for its sharp detail and its composition, which uses a low angle to create a sense of depth and perspective. The photo is currently housed in the Minneapolis Institute of Art.
