Silver-Gelatin Copy Print (Edward Steichen) — 1930s Hollywood

Sumptuous Old Hollywood portrait printed on silver-gelatin paper and presented in a classic rope-twist wood frame under glass. The sitter is a well-known Steichen-era muse; this is a copy print (photograph of a photograph) made from a later internegative—not from the original negative and not printed by Steichen. The result is a rich, continuous-tone print (no halftone dots) with beautiful blacks and a luxe period look—perfect statement piece for film, fashion, or Art-Deco interiors.
