About the Item

This is an in-camera manipulated photograph from 1970. It depicts soft light caressing trees as they are mirrored in the water. The image is filled with nuanced blue-magenta color. This lyrical landscape is equally abstract as it is representational - with no central point of focus. More important, it's an example of groundbreaking color photography that is generations ahead of time when most color photography was just documentary Signed, numbered 3/15, dated and titled, and lower right recto.
