Product description
The air is thick with the mechanical hum of idling Vespas and the sharp rustle of the morning papers. Captured with the raw, immediate energy that defined his career, this print freezes a split second of daily life in the Italian capital.
About black and white photography
Many photographers still choose black and white to emphasise light, shape and mood over colour. Vintage prints preserve the look of the film stocks, papers and printing methods of their time. The original dates from 1960. Many celebrated photographers printed their own work in the darkroom, treating each print as a finished artwork.
Styling this black and white photograph
Its black-and-white palette makes this black and white photograph easy to build a room around. As a landscape piece, “Red Light Rome” 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, “Red Light Rome” works with any colour scheme; a slim black frame with a wide white mat gives it a gallery finish. Build a gallery wall around “Red Light Rome”: add two or three smaller prints that echo its black-and-white and keep the gaps to 2–3 inches.
