This is part of the last set of three photos that he completed at the end of his career and according to research is considered as one of the least produced images by Curtis. Singed in the negative in lower right with the LA logo. In excellent condition for just under 100 years old. It had been re-framed at some point so I did remove the back to verify that it is an original and is not cut down. This is one of only a handful that were done in black and white without the blue tone. Picture measures 11 inches wide and is just under 14 inches tall. You can see the original image edge lines still showing that it has never been trimmed. A couple small chips to image edge on top as shown. Very slight partial wrinkle line on left edge as shown but it has not cracked. Absolutely beautiful example of this rare Edward Curtis original Silver Gelatin Photograph. Frame measures 14 by 18 inches and has a touch of paint on outside edge, a period frame would make this look amazing. Photo is not faded and still sharp and has great depth as the photos show. Was hard to reduce the light glare to get good pics but there are a few that show the true image color.
