Wales 1953

Robert Frank's "Wales" (1953) is a black-and-white photograph that captures a moment of everyday life in a candid style. The image depicts a man in a waistcoat, drinking tea, with a blurred figure of a woman in the background. The photograph is characteristic of Frank's work, which often explores themes of social class, alienation, and the American way of life. His photojournalistic style and use of natural light give the image a sense of authenticity and immediacy. "Wales" is a compelling example of Frank's ability to capture the subtle nuances of human interaction and the beauty of ordinary moments.
