Description

  • Ilse Bing
  • 'NY WALL STREET (ABYSS)'
signed and dated in white ink on the image, tipped to a mount, signed, titled, and dated in pencil on the reverse, 1936

Condition

This early, slightly warm-toned print, on matte-surface Agfa Brovira paper, is in generally excellent condition. When examined under ultraviolet light, this print does not appear to fluoresce. The mount's corners are bumped, and the lower right corner is creased. There is light, random foxing, mostly in the mount's right and lower portions. Numerical annotations on the reverse of the mount are as follows: '[247-94-D2]' and 'BE91.'

Prospective buyers should inspect each lot to satisfy themselves as to condition and must understand that any statement made by Sotheby's is merely a subjective qualified opinion.
