Crossing the Ohio River, Louisville
A powerful black-and-white photograph by documentary photographer Danny Lyon, this gelatin silver print captures the sweeping expanse of the Ohio River as figures make their way across its vast, shimmering surface near Louisville. Lyon's signature intimate yet gritty aesthetic draws the viewer into a fleeting moment that feels both deeply personal and historically resonant. Printed in 1993, the image reflects Lyon's enduring commitment to documenting the American experience with raw authenticity and emotional depth.
