"Place de la Bastille--Paris 20" is a contact sheet of photographic negatives by American photographer Robert Frank, created in 1959.

The contact sheet reveals the photographer’s process of capturing the scene, showcasing various angles and compositions. This work is a valuable resource for art historians and photography enthusiasts interested in Frank’s working methods and his keen eye for detail.
