"London / Wales" is a photo book by Robert Frank, one of America's leading photographers. His representative photo books include "The Americans," first published in 1958, and the 1972 autobiographical photo essay "The Lines of My Hand." Frank has also produced many conceptual works in video, but his clear perspective and foresight to correctly capture the times, as well as his rare sensibility and creativity, which he cultivated during his early years as a journalist, have had a great influence on later photographers and artists. This book is composed of illustrations taken when Frank, who moved to the United States after the war and worked in fashion photography for Harper's Bazaar and other magazines, went to England in the early 1950s and became a freelance journalist. This is a collection of works from the journalist Frank's early period, where the depictions of wealthy London and poverty in Wales evoke the style of later American depictions of the contrast between whites and blacks.
