George Tice
Porch, Monhegan Island, Maine

1971 (printed 6/2/1998)

About the Item

Matte 14 x 11 inches; Image 9 3/8 x 6 1/8 inches Signed in pencil on recto Titled and dated in pencil on verso George Tice is one of the finest American photographers of his generation. His body of work has continually focused on the American rural and suburban landscape. Tice’s work features the architectural and industrial motifs that identify American society. His black-and-white photographs often engage a fascination in the understated beauty of the mundane. Tice’s platinum print image seems to reveal the cultural nuances of rural American communities. Here, a simple wooden porch is captured looking toward a seemingly motionless ocean. TIce successfully reflects on the simplicity of rural American life, which seemed totally anomalous in modern America. Especially well known for his printing skill, he successfully produced works that identify with the various facets of American culture.

  • Octopus Vulgaris ( Special Edition)
    By Jan C. Schlegel
    Located in VALLAURIS, FR
    While 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...
