Portfolio
by Robert Frank
Steidl
When Robert Frank immigrated to New York from Zurich in 1947, the aspiring young photographer brought along his portfolio of 40 photos to help him secure employment. Portfolio is the facsimile version of this fascinating object. Containing Frank’s earliest original photographs as well as the work of other photographers which he had retouched, the portfolio presents images of rural life in Switzerland and alpine landscapes, alongside cityscapes and still lifes. Portfolio contains the seeds of a career of such scope and influence even the ambitious 23-year-old Robert Frank could not have anticipated.
