This
is
an authentic (NOT a modern reprint) vintage 1972 offset lithographic
print on art paper made directly from the original circa early 1900's
photogravure plate by the renowned photographer of the Native American
Indian, Edward S. Curtis. This
is not a photogravure or chemical process print - it is a vintage
photo-mechanical offset print (also known as a photo engraving) made directly
from the original pre 1920 Edward S. Curtis photogravure plate.
Rare and out of print, the now famous 1972 printing of these photo
lithograph plates marked the first time since the early 20th century
that these iconic Native American images have been faithfully reprinted
from the original large Curtis photogravure plates, as well as matched
for tonality and color. In the year of their release, the famous
photography critic and author A.D. Coleman praised the high quality of
these 1972 Edward Curtis fine art plates as being the truest printing
of the photographer's work he had ever seen, outside of the actual
original turn of the century plates. Condition of this plate is
excellent and it would frame up nicely for display.
This
vintage 1972 offset print is guaranteed to be authentic and comes with
a hand signed CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY (COA) with unique individual
registered and certified 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.
READY FOR FRAMING & DISPLAY! - The unique aesthetics of high quality offset photo lithography and the resulting fine
prints make high quality vintage offset plates highly collectible and excellent prints for framing and display.
MUSEUM QUALITY PACKING & SHIPPING! - All vintage prints are expertly packed and shipped by USPS First Class Mail with Delivery Confirmation and Insurance.
