This11x14" selenium toned silver gelatin print by noted American photographer George Tice is considered among the iconic American photographs of the 20th Century. Taken with an 8x10 view camera in 1973 in Cherry Hill, NJ, the water tower at the background is just one tone different than the deep black sky, but masterful printing allows clear distinction between the two. Author of 18 books and winner of Guggenheim fellowship as well as a greatest living American photographers, also noted his formidable printing skills, he was called upon by Johanna Steichen to print her husbands portfolio.
Gallery 270 represents distinguished photographers of the 20th Century and the emergent photographers of the 21st Century from around the world.
