A Beautifully Detailed, Original Photogravure of the Pool at the Residence of George D. Pratt, Esq., Glen Cove, Long Island, New York. EARLY PHOTOGRAPH. Trowbridge & Ackerman, Architect(s). From the Architecture League of New York, 1914.
This picture is extremely hard to find. The Architecture League of New York had a very small circulation during this time and these original photogravures only appeared in a very limited number of issues that were distributed to a few prominent architects. It measures 12.5 by 9.5 inches. Has a mat border and foam core backing (not attached to the picture). The whole picture measures approximately 15.5 by 12.5 inches (with border). Extraordinary detail in this early photographic print. Shrink wrapped.
Plan is in VG+ condition with browning around the edges and light crinkling.
This is a highly unusual, scarce item. See our other auctions for more original pictures from this era.
