Rodeo, New York City, 1955. © Robert Frank

 Photography that features the human condition within public

places and does not necessitate the presence of a

street or even the urban environment. The subject of

the photograph might be absent of people and can be an

object or environment where the image projects a decidedly human character in facsimile

or aesthetic.
