Sorry, I don't think that was very useful ..... not really a 'famous photo' 🙄

How about this one - it's [i]very[/i] famous. John F. Kenndy, Jr. saluting his father's coffin at his state funeral :

For grief, the first thing that comes to mind is Dorothea Lange's Migrant Mother.

It's a great photo, but that makes me think more of worry / fear than grief.

Weegee's later stuff? Anything by Sebastiao Salgado would fit the bill.... Don Mccullins work.....

Would have suggested some of Salgado's work, but that's been done. Otherwise, the most obvious (and probably not posted for that reason).
