57th Street Possibly 1954 - 1978

"57th Street" is a black and white photograph taken by William Klein sometime between 1954 and 1978, capturing the dynamic energy of New York City life. The image focuses on a woman's face, her expression both intriguing and slightly obscured by the surrounding crowd. The interplay of light and shadow adds depth and a sense of movement, characteristic of Klein's street photography style. The composition, with its emphasis on close-ups and candid moments, reflects Klein's signature approach, documenting the raw energy of urban life.
