FINE PHOTO GALLERIES is pleased to offer an authentic (NOT a modern reprint) vintage 1972 photogravure (also known as a Héliogravure) by the renowned Japanese photographer Tamotsu Yato. Born
in 1928, Tamotsu Yato was a Japanese photographer responsible for
pioneering Japanese photography of the male form. He created iconic
black-and-white images of the Japanese male with his nude and semi nude
models being mostly amateur, unsophisticated countryside men. Yato
photographed his male nude and physique studies during the 1960's in
Japan. His work influenced many photographers of the male form
worldwide, both in his day and after. He was a close friend and
collaborator of the famous writer Yukio Mishima whom he also
photographed nude, as well as a long-term romantic partner of Meredith
Weatherby, an expatriate American publisher and translator of Mishima's
works into English. Tamotsu Yato died in 1973.
This photogravure plate
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. Under
magnification this plate shows a tight "honeycomb" cell structure, uniform
pressing of ink and a wide range of tone - all indicative of a high
quality sheet fed gravure print. The watermark word "Finephoto" does not appear on the actual print.
READY FOR FRAMING & DISPLAY! - The expensive engraved copper plate photogravure process and the resulting fine
prints make vintage photogravures highly collectible and excellent
vintage prints for framing. Your
vintage print will arrive ready to be placed directly into a standard
size frame.
