"Family--Wellfleet 1," a contact sheet by renowned American photographer Robert Frank (1924-2019), likely dates back to 1962. The sheet showcases a series of black and white photographs taken from a car window, capturing a family's intimate moments during a road trip. This is a classic example of Frank's candid, documentary style, which often explores the complexities of American society and everyday life. While the contact sheet itself isn't a finished photograph, it offers a glimpse into Frank's creative process, showing how he selected and arranged his images. The contact sheet's format and black and white aesthetic further amplify the gritty realism of the photographs.
