Condition Details

 

Unframed*

243 of 250. ***PRINT IS FROM A COPY NEGATIVE*** - Top edge has cockling across the print going approximately 1.5” into the image itself, there is a slight possibility it can be improved but this is not advisable as would require a light misting which could potentially cause damage to ink signature on the reverse. There is also some slight discolouration along this same edge meaning there is a possibility it has been mounted before using non-archival board. Although once framed and underneath glass the damage will be visibly reduced it would need to be hung away from overhead bright light as the cockling will still be visible. Prior to purchase, the buyer should view the print in correct lighting conditions.

Framed:


242 of 250. Signed on Verso (back) in ink. Edition number on frame backing in pencil. Frame is repurposed & ex display exhibition frame. Small cips visible on frame edges. Full condition report available by messaging contact@globephtos.com.

About the Photographer

Over the course of a career lasting half a century, Slim Aarons (1916-2006) captured a golden age of wealth, privilege, beauty, and leisure. He worked for the leading magazines of the day, often traveling to attend parties in Beverly Hills or on Park Avenue, spending winters in Gstaad or New Hampshire, summers on the French and Italian Riviera, or sailing in the Caribbean. Slim was very much at ease and on familiar terms with the world’s elite and he brought to his portraits a freshness and certain élan that they greatly appreciated. As a result, he was welcomed into the exclusive retreats of the world’s glitterati and his imagery attains a degree of intimacy approaching that of family photos. In recent years, theinfluenceof his work has been increasingly acknowledged and he is now regarded as one of the mostinfluentialphotographersof his generation.
