About the Item

Original heliogravure by Henri Florence, featured in the first edition of Verve, the iconic Parisian art magazine founded by Tériade. This delicate black and white image portrays a young woman seated, nude, with her gaze lowered in modesty and a long braid cascading over her shoulder. The intimacy of the pose and the serene expression convey both strength and vulnerability. Florence captures the natural grace of the human form with sensitivity, light, and quiet composure, creating a timeless portrait that bridges classical tradition with modern photographic aesthetics. Published in 1937, this print was made using the heliogravure process, renowned for its ability to render exceptional tonal depth and fine detail—making each page of Verve a work of art in itself. Framed in high-quality black-lacquered wood, shown here as a digital approximation. Final framing will be tailored to the buyer upon purchase, with mount proportions subject to slight adjustment for optimal balance. Technique: Original heliogravure Published in Verve, Volume I, Number 1 Printed in Paris, 1937 Excellent vintage condition Dimensions: 3.5 (d) × 36 (w) × 43 (h) cm Original heliogravure by Henri Florence from the landmark first issue of Verve magazine, Paris 1937. Featuring a tender nude portrait of a young woman with a long braid, this finely printed black-and-white photograph is a rare example of early 20th-century poetic realism in photography. A striking vintage piece, custom-framed in black lacquered wood.
