Cemetery--San Francisco 1956

"Cemetery--San Francisco" (1956) is a photograph by Robert Frank, known for his candid and often poignant portrayals of American life. The image depicts a grave in a cemetery, shrouded in fog, with a bouquet of flowers resting on the headstone. The composition is simple yet evocative, highlighting the quiet solemnity of the scene and the ephemeral nature of life. Frank's work, often classified as photojournalism or social documentary, explores themes of isolation, alienation, and the passage of time.
