This is an authentic (NOT a modern reprint) vintage 1972 photogravure print on
fine art paper made directly from the original circa early 1900's photogravure
plate/negative by the renowned photographer of the Native American Indian,
Edward S. Curtis. The photogravure plate is professionally dry mounted on 11x14
archival museum mat board and ready for a standard size frame.These iconic
Native American images have been faithfully crafted in fine sheet fed
photogravure (also known as Héliogravure) by The Meriden Gravure Company and
matched for tonality and color - their "look" is that of the original pre-1920
gravures.
Soft, muted and atmospheric, these images evoke the historic feel of a world
and way of life long since gone. The source originals from which these vintage
1972 prints were made came from the Pierpont Morgan Library's Curtis collection
and the Boston Public Library's set of original Curtis photogravures from his
landmark project "The North American Indian". Finephoto carries an extensive
selection of vintage 1972 Edward S. Curtis prints, in both fine lithography and
photogravure - all are matched to the original images in their look. Condition
of this professionally mounted photogravure is excellent and it will frame up
beautifully for display.
This vintage 1972 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.
