George Hoyningen-Huene

platinum-palladium print, signed by Horst and with credit, title, and annotation 'From The Collection of' in pencil on the reverse, framed, 1930, printed later (Eye for Elegance, p. 39)

This print is in generally excellent condition. There are a few soft, handling creases in the center portion of the image and in the margins. There is a very small white adhesion of indeterminate nature in the center of the image. There are some rust-colored deposits in the margins and on the reverse. None of these are immediately apparent and do not detract in any way from the fine appearance of this print. The reverse is annotated by Horst 'From the Collection of Horst.' Also on the reverse, 'C: HPH - 43' and 'SL' are written in an unidentified hand in pencil.
