1940's Radio Hour, New York City, 1979 1/50 Vintage Color Photograph - Limited Edition of 50

This image was made 38 years ago, when the artist was young, walking the streets of Manhattan, responding to the constant flow of subjects and imagery. Today, at 68, he is in good health and going strong. This composition was created just off Broadway, in the morning, not far from where Steven Colbert tapes his show today, A high quality Rolleiflex medium format film camera and Kodak Ektachrome color transparency film were used. The film was processed by the artist, which is important, since he was one of the first fine art color photographers and exhibiting at the Alonzo Gallery on W57th St. The picture was then filed away for decades. However, the transparency was in pristine condition. Then, in 2009, it was rediscovered by Mr. Martin, scanned, adjusted for color, and dust removed by him. Feeling it conveyed much more as a night image, he digitally converted it, a technology unavailable at the time of original creation. The limited edition print is one of 5 plus two artist's proofs to ensure value to the collector. The print is a new pigment print printed on 22"X17" Epson Exhibition Fiber fine art paper with a K2 inkset, which has vastly improved stability over the previous dyes in color prints of 1979. The image itself measures 15" X 15". There is a 1" border on the left and right and a 3.5" border on the top and bottom. It is titled and numbered on the lower left and signed and dated on the lower right, in archival pen. It comes with a signed certificate of authenticity with the artist's thumbprint. The print too has the artist's thumb print on the obverse.
