This is an authentic, vintage (NOT a modern reprint) 1939 Art Deco Photogravure by the renowned British photographer John Everard.
Classic art deco design elements are evident in this beautiful nude
study by the deco era photographer known for his artistic renderings of
the nude. This
photogravure is printed on heavy satin/matte finish stock and is blank
on the reverse side. Critically acclaimed throughout his career, John
Everard created
masterful art deco style photographs of the nude female form during the
1930's and 1940's. A true master of lighting and composition, Everard's
nude studies were well known for both technical precision and artistic
beauty. Today his work is sought after by collectors and held in
numerous important collections throughout the world. His nudes from the
1930's in any form (silver gelatin or photogravure) have now become
particularly scarce. Please note that a computer scan cannot render nor
do justice to the beauty, detail and subtle tonality of the actual
print.
This
photogravure 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 Archive & Database. Under
magnification this plate shows a tight "honeycomb" grid, excellent
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.
HOLOGRAM CERTIFIED: Each vintage artwork comes with a fully authenticated gallery certified Certificate Of Authenticity. This COA contains a unique serial number and small corresponding tamper proof hologram with matching serial number affixed to the backside of the print with archival adhesive. Our exclusive authentication system and the ensuing COA/Hologram not only provides our clients with essential peace of mind but, adds value to the print in the future by providing provenance and the original gallery authenticity guarantee documents.
ABOUT PHOTOGRAVURE: Photogravure is an intaglio printmaking process utilizing a carefully etched copper plate made from the original negative/image. Prints are made by pressing suitable paper heavily down upon the inked copper plate which has been intricately etched to varying depths corresponding with the actual tonality of the original negative, This precisely etched plate combined with a fine "honeycomb" screen controls the amount of ink to be transferred to the paper at any given point in direct proportion to the variation of tone in the original image. The result is a true continuous tone print which combines many qualities of a traditional silver based photograph with a tactile feel similar to an etching, engraving or lithograph. Rich in tonal detail, the photogravure process produces delicately rendered shades for a look which is unique in the world of photographic print making. In the early to mid 1900's photogravure was selected (when budgets allowed) for special high quality publishing and portfolio projects, but due to its significant expense and labor, the process is rarely seen today. From Man Ray and Ruth Bernhard to Brett Weston and Ansel Adams, many of the world's most renowned photographic masters have published their images in the rich photogravure process.
