Swiss-born American photographer Robert Frank, a monument to photography, died Monday at the age of 94 in Canada. The information was announced Tuesday by the New York Times , citing his New York gallerist Peter MacGill. Robert Frank became famous with his album "The Americans" (1958), a book of black and white shots taken from his travels across the United States, a true manifesto against the tradition that was to profoundly influence subsequent generations.
