Photo of a man on the edge of frame with rain clouds or street at the background?

There is also a YouTube video in which interviewer specifically ask why all your subjects are at the edge of the frame.

Anyone know that famous photographer?

This thread is not a riddle, rather try to get the name of the great master.
 
There are many painting, music, news stories that I remember but not the name of the artist, the composer, or journalist.
 
I expect that this thread was started in error by @baachitraka , and I'd be happy to delete it if the OP asks, but I would observe that the same sometimes applies for me to people I encounter.
There is this one neighbour whose wife's name escapes me every single time!
I admit I've always been terrible with names - numbers I tend to remember reliably.
 
It's black white photo...it is driving me nuts.

I presume he is European but I could neither get his name nor the photo in the internet
 
Try including a rough sketch of what you see in your mind.
 
Got it and it is Bill Brandt.

A group, rather than an individual, and certainly no sign of rain, but even then I immediately thought of this U2 album cover:
 
What photographer in this era is comparable to the stature of Mr. Brandt In the photojournalism field?
