Color Photograph by Manuel Larrañaga Sardiñas: Campion

Boy bends under the grille of a turquoise car, swinging a stick like a bat.

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. Color photograph mounted on a cream mat, showing a bright blue-green car on a narrow street. A child in the foreground grips a long stick, an orange ball near his foot. Passersby walk behind, and a handwritten title and signature sit below. It is 10.5 inches wide and 8 high.

Pure confidence from a person not much taller than the bumper.
