About the Item
Signed in pencil on recto
Manuel Alvarez Bravo was a pioneer of artistic Latin American Photography in the 20th Century and produced a proliferate body of images from the 1920’s to the 1990’s. His father and grandfather were both amateur photographers, thus introducing Alvarez Bravo to the medium at a young age. Throughout his career, Alvarez Bravo poetically captured images of rural and urban Mexico, translating reality into dream-like landscapes. In this black-and-white platinum print, a cropped image of a woman’s upper torso and exposed chest is captured. The woman wears a loose printed robe, which along with the decorative branches and forest setting, evokes a sense of primitivism.
He, along with Diego Rivera, Tina Modotti, Edward Weston, Frida Kahlo, and Octavio Paz, changed the way the world looked at Latin American Art and society.

- Octopus Vulgaris ( Special Edition)By Jan C. SchlegelLocated in VALLAURIS, FRWhile also available as a platinum print on Arches Platinum Rag (56 x 76 cm), this larger version (63 x 99 cm) of Schlegel's famous "Octopus Vulgaris" is a true prowess. It is printed on 30 gsm Japanese Hand-made Gampi paper. Taking into account the thinness of the paper and the fact that the platinum salt emulsion is embedded into its fiber during the printing process, this is a real feat of technical strength. Considered as the most archival process of all; its perfectly matte tonal range goes from a cool, slightly purple black to split tones of brown and warm black, to a very warm brown. Sold framed with a museum glass measuring 85 x 115 cm _______ The ocean has always been one of the most mysterious places on earth. In the past many legends and myths have evolved around monsters living in the deep sea. As a child many of us used to fantasize about underwater monsters like giant colossal squids having so much power that they were able to take down ships. By looking at Jan C. Schlegel his pictures, you can get a small glimpse of the richness and diversity of our oceans. When we think of fish, we usually perceive them as food and think of salmon or tuna. The photographs reveal much more than what could be imagined and are truly a special tribute to all the different kind of species living underneath the surface. There are sea horses that look like dragons with galaxies on their skin, flounders with their perfect flat form and their ability to turn invisible or even squids that will remind you of aliens from another planet. Using platinum printing as a process allows Jan C. Schlegel to create a deepness in his pictures that makes every small detail and structure visible for the human eye. It gives you the impression of being able to feel the animal just by looking at the pictures. This series celebrates the art of nature...Category
