Sepia Photograph by Eduardo & Orlando Garcia: Untitled, From Angels of Havana Series, 2005

A woman in a long dress stands in a doorway while a pale figure tumbles across the top.

This sepia photograph is from Cuba, and is contemporary. It is pigment on paper. Sepia toning gives a photograph a warm brown color, a look that echoes early prints and was originally made with a chemical bath. Vertical sepia image with a numbered plaque by a dark door, a barred window at right and a frame leaning against the wall. A figure upside down at the top corner is bleached and ghostly, edges are stained. It is 8 inches wide and 12 high.

One surprise per photograph, and this one is upside down.
