La fragilité
Chaque journée te la réclame
Dans le corps à corps, permanent
Les égaux toujours plus saillants
Dans les conflits qui nous désarment

This is a black and white photograph titled Three Welsh Miners. It was made by W. Eugene Smith in 1950. It shows three soot faced men in the lower right of frame, all looking to the right. In the distance behind them, filling the width of the top of the frame, are rows of worker housing.
This is a black and white photograph titled Spanish Wake. It was made by W. Eugene Smith in 1950. It is part of Smith's Life Magazine photo essay titled Spanish Village, made in the village of Deleitosa. The photo shows a male corpse in the lower left of frame with a group of six women gathered next to the body filling the center and right of frame. The photograph is classically composed and achieves a high contrast chiaroscuro effect in the lighting.
This is black and white photograph made by W. Eugene Smith in 1955. It is one of over 16,000 (some say 17,000) photographs Smith made in his quest to fully capture the city and its people. The photograph is a closeup of a steelworker wearing goggles and a hardhat looking to the left of frame. Smith used this photo to open every iteration of the Pittsburgh Project.
W. Eugene Smith's body of work is filled with iconic images that speak with conscience and compassion. The Magnum Photos agency has a wide ranging collection of his work online.

My father was a photographer. He taught me how to look at the world and its images. I am grateful to Aeon and @marinabenjamin.bsky.social for commissioning & sticking with this essay. 🙏
