signed, titled, and dated in pencil on the reverse, 1926, printed later (Of Paris and New York, pl. 22)
Condition
This photograph, printed with thin margins on double-weight paper with a slight surface sheen, is in generally very good condition. Under raking light, the following are visible: silvering along the perimeter of the image; a 1/4-inch linear impression near the center of the upper edge of the image; and some scattered deposits of indeterminate nature, possibly original retouching. The upper and lower edges of the print are faintly rippled and, because the margins are thin, this extends slightly into the image. The margin corners are gently bumped.
