toned, mounted, signed and annotated on the reverse, framed, 1978, printed in 1979

Acquired by the present owner from Pace/MacGill Gallery, New York

This warm-toned photograph is in generally excellent condition. There is very faint sunning on the mount at the periphery of the image. A small, rust-colored stain is visible on the lower left mount corner. On the reverse, the print is annotated by the photographer as follows: 'Mono Print: Bleach + Toned,' 'Light 1979 #,' '$750-,' and 'printed 1979,' which is the basis for our dating of the print.
