Ulysses S. Grant, Large Albumen Photograph on Card by Abraham Bogardus
Located in New York, NY
Grant, Ulysses S.
Large Albumen Photograph
Magnificent large albumen photograph of Ulysses S. grant by Abraham Bogardus.
An unusually large late (circa 1880) photograph of Grant, post-presidency, in formal dress, sitting and in partial profile. Mounted on thick card with the photographer’s credit and address (“A. Bogardus / 872 Broadway, NY”) on matte below the photo.
The photographer, Anthony Bogardus, was a photographic pioneer, described by the New York Times as “the best-known photographer in the United States” in his prime who took “the first photographs of Gen.

Larry Fink - Social Graces
By Larry Fink
Located in New York, NY
"Some people mistake my work for satire. I don't object because satire is a powerful force, so if the work is seen that way it serves one function. But I don't agree. The pictures are taken in the spirit of finding myself in the other, or finding the other in myself."—Larry Fink...

Bill Burke - I Want to Take Picture
By Bill Burke
Located in New York, NY
"The triumph of this book is that it does manage to reflect the mad experience of traveling in Southeast Asia, while still reflecting on what it all means" (Roth 101).
FIRST EDITION of one of the seminal photobooks of the 1980's. SIGNED BY BURKE INSIDE ORIGINAL DRAWING OF HIS HAND. One of only 1000 copies printed of the first edition.
"Bill Burke has become known for his large-format portraits shot on Polaroid Land film, which have the formality and feel of nineteenth-century photographs whilst remaining acutely modern in their sensibilities. In his best book, I Want to Take Picture, this technique is entirely appropriate, since it records his personal pilgrimage to southeast Asia, duplicating the enterprise of the old colonialist photographers but adding a contemporary twist...
"Although the pictures have a nineteenth-century feel, the book is also a diary that records a twentieth-century experience. Burke not only uses his photographs, but also employs documents- reproductions of ephemera like money...
