Atget and Robert Frank.

Two of my favorites... also Masahisa Fukase "Ravens" and many of the Japanese photographers whose graphic, gritty B/W work was featured in Camera Mainichi, Nippon Camera and Camera Asahi in the late 60's and early 70's...

That raven series was so touching and sad. The Philadelphia Museum of Art will very rarely show a few of his enormous prints. One is 44" x 62" from a 35mm negative. (I think it's the image you shared but would have to check.) It's jaw dropping from thirty feet away.

Boy, that's a tough one. I think that of all the photographers I wish I could "shadow" on a day they were out shooting...
It would have to be Henri Cartier-Bresson and Robert Frank.

I agree those Ravens are wonderful.
