Color Photograph by Manuel Larrañaga Sardiñas: Verde 708

Lime green car with bulging chrome sits parked on a gray street.

This color photograph is from Cuba, and is contemporary. It is pigment on paper. Pigment prints are made with pigment-based inks on paper, a process generally chosen for stable colour and fine tonal detail in contemporary photography. Colorful photograph of a vivid green older car with heavy chrome bumper and headlights, shot from a low angle. A yellow plate sits at the front. Buildings and pavement behind are in grayscale. A penciled title and signature sit below on the mat. It is 10 inches wide and 8 high.

A shade of green that has never once apologized.
