Train tracks--Transportation 1941 - 1945

"Train Tracks--Transportation" is a black and white photograph by Robert Frank, taken between 1941 and 1945. The photograph captures a desolate, snowy landscape with a set of train tracks receding into the distance, a stark contrast against the backdrop of a snow-capped mountain range. The minimalist composition emphasizes the vastness and loneliness of the scene, reflecting Frank's signature style of capturing the essence of American society through candid, often haunting imagery. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the power of travel and the enduring influence of industrialization.
