  • Gelatin silver print
the photographer's estate stamp on the reverse, 1950 (Dryansky, pl. 74)

Condition

This warm-toned print, on double-weight, matte-surface paper, is in generally very good to excellent condition. Upon close examination, some very faint surface scratches are barely visible in the upper left quadrant. In addition, there are 6 light pinpoint-sized areas in the lower portion of the print that are in the negative, not on the surface.
In response to your inquiry, we are pleased to provide you with a general report of the condition of the property described above. Since we are not professional conservators or restorers, we urge you to consult with a restorer or conservator of your choice who will be better able to provide a detailed, professional report. 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.
