Description

  • Robert Frank
  • 'FROM THE FUNERAL, FROGMORE, S. C.'
signed, titled, and dated in ink on the reverse, 1955, printed later (Looking In, Contact #4)

Provenance

Acquired from the photographer, through an intermediary, circa 1980

Condition

This print, on double-weight paper with a surface sheen, is in generally excellent condition. The left edge is rough, as the photo was likely printed on one side of an 11-by-14-inch sheet, torn in half. This does not affect the print. The negative edge forms a black frame around the image.

Prospective buyers should inspect each lot to satisfy themselves as to condition and must understand that any statement made by Sotheby's is merely a subjective qualified opinion.
