Cemetery--San Francisco 1956

"Cemetery--San Francisco" is a black and white photograph by Robert Frank, taken in 1956. It shows a piece of fabric, perhaps a blanket, lying on the ground in front of a dense, foggy landscape. The scene evokes a sense of solitude and mystery, characteristic of Frank's work that often documented the lives of ordinary Americans. The photograph is part of his iconic book, "The Americans," which became a defining work of photojournalism and American social commentary.
