In 1955, W. Eugene Smith embarked on a project to document Pittsburgh that was originally intended to last three weeks but stretched into three years and thousands of negatives. This print captures a singular, quiet moment from that massive endeavor: a young boy standing against a weathered building exterior, meticulously pressing his hands against the surface.

About W. Eugene Smith

W. Eugene Smith (1918–1978) was a pioneer of the photo essay for Life magazine. Black-and-white prints sit comfortably in almost any room, from minimalist to traditional. A fine art photograph is composed, printed and displayed with the same care as a painting.

Styling this W. Eugene Smith photograph

With its black-and-white palette and moody atmosphere, this W. Eugene Smith photograph brings instant personality to a wall. As a landscape piece, “Pittsburgh Child Handprints” fills the space above a desk at 24×36″, while 12×18″ suits a smaller wall, and it is a natural fit for a home office. In black and white, “Pittsburgh Child Handprints” works with any colour scheme; a slim black frame with a wide white mat gives it a gallery finish.
