Paul Fusco: Untitled, June 8, 1968, from the series RFK Funeral Train

In 1968 Fusco was a staff photographer for Look magazine. Robert F. Kennedy’s death shook the country to its core, and for millions of Americans, including Paul Fusco, his assassination seemed to represent the end of hope. He was commissioned to document all the events surrounding the funeral, including the eight-hour journey from New York to Washington D.C. on the train that carried Kennedy’s coffin. Shooting approximately 2,000 pictures from inside, Fusco had a unique vantage point, resulting in an extraordinarily powerful and affecting series of photographs capturing the thousands of Americans from every sector of society who stood by the railroad tracks to pay their final respects.
