About the Item
Street Photographer Mitchell Funk breaks with tradition and shoots street photography in color. Today in 2022 this does not seem like a big deal. But 53 years ago in 1969 it was quite a trailblazing effort. Color captures something that is missing in Black and White. It's a greater sense of realism.
Funk serves as an early voice for tight design, bold color and carefully composed compositions instead of the more generally accepted "snapshot" street image.
The fine art print is signed, dated and numbered 2/15, lower right recto. unframed Other sizes available. , printed later, Printed on Hahnemuhle fine art paper
