Sally Mann Print | Jessie at 9 (1991) Child Portrait Fine Art Photography Wall Art
This Sally Mann print captures her daughter Jessie at age 9 in 1991 — part of the Immediate Family series that made Mann one of the most discussed names in American fine art photography.
A child portrait print with real weight: the black and white portrait is intimate, unsettling in the best way, and technically precise — Immediate Family print work that belongs on a wall, not just in a museum.
Available on 200 GSM museum-grade matte paper, seven sizes 9×11″ to 24×36″ — frame-ready. Digital download $3.90 (300 DPI, PDF/JPG).
The Artwork
About This Print
This Sally Mann print comes from the Immediate Family series — Mann’s landmark body of work documenting her three children on their Virginia farm through the late 1980s and early 1990s. Jessie at 9 is one of the quieter images in that series: a child portrait print made with the large-format camera Mann used throughout, the tonal depth and shadow complexity giving this black and white portrait a quality no 35mm image could replicate. This Sally Mann print is fine art photography made from the inside of a life, not the outside.
The Immediate Family print series was exhibited widely and collected by major institutions. As fine art photography it occupies a unique position — documentary and constructed simultaneously, domestic and formally rigorous in equal measure.

After It Arrives
How to Frame & Display Your Print
Four simple steps, tube to wall — no tools, no specialist knowledge.
-
Unroll & Let It Relax
Remove from the tube and lay face-down on a clean flat surface for 20–30 minutes. The 200 GSM matte stock self-relaxes — any shipping curl releases without heat or moisture.
-
Pick a Standard Frame
Every size matches a standard off-the-shelf frame — IKEA HOVSTA, Target Threshold, Amazon Basics. An 18×24" drops in directly. No trimming, no custom framing.
-
Glass Is Optional
Our matte finish eliminates glare, so hanging without glass often shows more detail — particularly deep blacks and shadow gradients. If you prefer glass, use UV-protective acrylic.
-
Avoid Direct UV Sunlight
Archival pigment inks are rated for 75+ years indoors. Choose a wall with indirect or diffused natural light for the longest possible display life.
