Trip south--Seville and Malaga, Spain 14 1952

"Trip south--Seville and Malaga, Spain 14" is a photo contact sheet by renowned American photographer Robert Frank, created in 1952. This contact sheet, measuring 21.6 x 24.4 cm, presents a sequence of photographic frames, offering a glimpse into Frank's documentation of his travels through Spain. This is an example of a contact sheet, which photographers use to see all the images they took from a roll of film in a grid format. Frank was a pioneer of street photography, and this piece displays his keen eye for capturing everyday moments and interactions. The contact sheet provides insight into his artistic process and the selection of images that would later be included in his seminal work, "The Americans." The arrangement of the frames, the composition of each individual image, and the candid nature of the subjects contribute to the raw and authentic feel of this contact sheet.
