Additional Details



Please note that this is a platinum, not silver, print. This is an exceptionally lovely and dramatic print. The rock in the water next to the figure appears slightly warmer in tone than the rest of the print, possibly from retouching. There are 3 or 4 extremely faint spots of foxing that are visible in the lighter areas of the rock but they are very discrete. The print is tipped to two differently toned pieces of paper with deckled edges and is then mounted on a larger mount.
