A Walk on the Beach - $975

Wonderful study of light and contrast in this gelatin silver print of a man walking on the beach by Edouard Boubat, (1923-1995). Boubat first became interested in photography after World War II. One of France’s most famous romantic photographers, he traveled all over the world. This particular image is identified in print on the back of the image as “Indie, 1971, Boubat” and is signed E. Boubat on the front of the print in the margin. This illustration has been slightly cropped to accommodate our scanner; the photograph measures approximately 11 ¾” x 14 ¾.”


Hawaiian Coconut Tree - $85

Interesting unmounted gelatin silver print with a coconut tree as the main subject. A white picket fence in need of repair stands in the foreground while a small house is situated in the back left corner. The photograph is identified in pencil on the back as #154 coconut tree. The image measures 4 1/2” x 6 5/8” and has been printed in an unusual matte-finish format. It was purchased as part of a small lot of identified Hawaiian images. The gray background creates a nice contrast with the lush foliage and white house and fence. A sharp image, circa 1920-30s.
