This is an authentic. (NOT a modern reprint). Vintage 1936 color offset lithograph print by the well known American photographer James N. This is not a photogravure or chemical process print – it is a vintage photo-mechanical offset print (also known as a photo engraving) made from the original negative/image in 1936. The blocks for this vintage print were etched by the Beck Engraving Company of Philadelphia/New York and the resulting color separations and prints were produced in collaboration with the famous Condé Nast Company of New York City. This vintage color offset print is guaranteed to be authentic and comes with a hand signed CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY (COA) with unique individual registered serial number from the Finephoto Vintage Archive & Database. Computer scans simply cannot do justice nor render the soft color palette and rich tonality of the actual print itself. The watermark word “Finephoto” does not appear on the actual print. In the 1930’s, color photography was in its infancy and therefor color work by history’s greatest photographers of that period is seldom seen. Production of color work during that time required enormous efforts but, the results could be absolutely stunning – even by today’s standards. Unique color palettes of 1930’s reversal/negative films (such as Dufay & Finlay) and exacting work by highly skilled etchers & separators, resulted in images that were and are unique in the history of photography. Many feel that this unique “vintage” look aesthetically surpasses today’s often highly manipulated color imagery. READY FOR FRAMING & DISPLAY! – This beautiful vintage color offset process and the resulting fine prints make vintage color offset prints highly collectible and excellent vintage prints for framing.
