Description
Shot in 1988, printed in 1994 and signed in 2002
This work has been featured in numerous auctions since 1988, and reportedly was the highest priced photographic lot at one moment in history.
The uniqueness of this work, besides its aesthetic and historical significance, is the fact that despite its surrealist and very modern look, it was made through an analog process only.
This is a unique opportunity to obtain the last copy available of the last printed edition of this work. This copy is the artist's proof, and the last from the final series printed in 1994. According to the artist, the negative of this image is no longer in existence.
Edition: AP 2/2
* This amount excludes shipping fees, applicable taxes, and will have a 20% Buyer's Premium.
