Strawberries at market--Food 1941 - 1945

"Strawberries at market--Food," a black and white photograph by Robert Frank, captures a bustling market scene. Taken between 1941 and 1945, the image focuses on a multitude of wooden baskets overflowing with ripe strawberries, hinting at the abundance of food during this period. The composition, with its focus on the fruit and the cropped figures in the background, highlights the stark contrast between the beauty of nature and the everyday activities of market life, exemplifying Frank's signature style of candid, observational photography.
