Influenced by The Past - photogravure print - Private Release Editions

I can not help being influenced by the photographs from the past history of photography.  It is the simple beauty of the figure with props and a setting that feel like a stage set for the model.  I can create a story for myself and my viewer that is open for dreaming. This hand-pulled photogravure print is made with Charbonnel 55981 Black, Bistre, and a dash of Sanguine inks on Hahnemühle copperplate paper. I printed an edition of 8 numbered prints, and 3 A/P prints. Hand-pulled print by Ray Bidegain Limited edition of 8 6.25 x 8  inches on an 11 x 14 sheet. Signed numbered and dated by the artist on the lower front.
