Peru, page 13 1948

"Peru, page 13" is a photograph taken by Robert Frank in 1948. The black and white photograph depicts a group of people traveling on a road in Peru, with a stark, barren landscape in the background. The composition is focused on the hats and heads of the people, with their bodies mostly obscured. The image is characteristic of Frank's photojournalistic style, which captured candid moments of daily life with a sense of immediacy and social commentary. Frank was a pioneer of the "New Documentary" movement, and his book "The Americans" is considered a seminal work of photojournalism and a powerful representation of the social and cultural landscape of the United States in the 1950s.
