very rich patina to the bronze (you can see by comparing to the underside)

Painterly Early 20th Century Photo of Man with Line of Fish football shaped tin box 6 1/4" x 5 1/16"I love this image and find it very poetic, specificity falling to silhouette, and with the drape of those fish on their (imagined) line creating a very beautiful gesture. Super painterly and evocative, hovering in between resolving and dissolving. 5 3 4" x 3 1 2", very good condition, matte surface, real photo postcard weight.
