This is an authentic (NOT a modern reprint)
vintage 1937 offset lithographic photo engraving by the renown American
photographer Alfred Cheney Johnston. Classic Art Deco composition
underscores this nude study by the historically significant
photographer well known for his ground breaking photographs of the
Ziegfeld Follies Girls and his iconic fashion images. Today Alfred
Cheney Johnston's work is held in numerous important collections and
museums throughout the world and his vintage work in any form is sought
after by a growing collector base. This vintage photo engraving was
originally issued as part of a now rare photo engraved compilation
released in 1937 and engraved by master engraver David Corker of the
Beck Engraving Company for Alfred Cheney Johnston. This is a lovely art deco image and will frame up nicely for display.
This vintage 1937 offset print 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. 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.
Matting & Framing Note:
It was not uncommon for Alfred Cheney Johnston to release his work in a
circular composition which he felt added to the aesthetics of the
image. These circular images are easily matted by your local frame
and/or craft store (circular mat opening) with square/rectangle outer
edges allowing an easy fit for standard size frames. These circular
images make for a stunning display when matted/framed in this manner.
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.
