Mary and Pablo, Feb, 1952. Robert Frank.
Silver print, 11 x 14 inches
"Portraits include...most compellingly...Frank's wife Mary reclining with their infant son, Pablo. With one breast bare and ready to nurse, she stares at the viewer through piercing pale eyes, providing an intimate glimpse of Frank's own American life."
Excerpted from a review of a 2009 show of Frank's work at the
Robert Mann Gallery,
