Bob Dylan, singer, 132nd Street and FDR Drive, November 4

A striking black-and-white gelatin silver print by legendary photographer Richard Avedon, capturing Bob Dylan against the stark urban backdrop of 132nd Street and FDR Drive. Avedon's signature high-contrast style isolates the iconic musician with an intensity that reveals both vulnerability and enigma. The image reflects Avedon's masterful ability to strip away artifice, presenting Dylan not as a cultural icon but as a singular, complex human presence.
