Product description
This print shows Eleanor in Chicago, photographed by Harry Callahan in 1949. Callahan’s photographs often reduce a place or person to line, tone, and pause, making them strong choices for uncluttered rooms.
About vintage photography
Grain, soft contrast and period detail give vintage photographs a character that modern images rarely have. A fine art photograph is composed, printed and displayed with the same care as a painting. The original dates from 1949. Vintage photographs carry the grain, tone and atmosphere of their time. Vintage prints preserve the look of the film stocks, papers and printing methods of their time.
Styling this vintage photograph
The black-and-white colour scheme gives this vintage photograph a clear, confident presence. Hang “Eleanor Chicago” at eye level, about 57 inches (145 cm) to its centre; 18×24″ is a versatile size for most walls. Black and white suits any palette, so “Eleanor Chicago” is easy to place; finish it with a slim black frame and a white mat. Build a gallery wall around “Eleanor Chicago”: add two or three smaller prints that echo its black-and-white and keep the gaps to 2–3 inches.
