"Untitled (Antiques)" is a black and white photograph by Robert Frank, created around 1958. The image captures a candid moment of two women in an antique shop, likely in the United States. The viewer sees the women interacting with an antique object, possibly a small cabinet, while the composition is framed by the cluttered interior of the shop. The image is characteristic of Frank's "The Americans," a book of photographs exploring everyday life in the United States, often with an emphasis on social and economic divides. The candid, somewhat voyeuristic style of the photograph highlights the photographer's interest in observing and documenting the complexities of American society in the 1950s.
