Description
This image is in Firenze or Florence, Italy and is from our recent trip to Italy. During the trip I was evaluating the Fujifilm XM-1 and this picture was shot with that fine camera. Of the 2000 odd pictures I took on the trip, a significant number were interesting door knockers. This is my favorite of the bunch. In addition to having a great knocker, the door was hand carved, well worn, had fitted wooden pegs and is just right for a B&W. A nod to Gene Wilder and Mel Brooks on the title.
One of a Kind
You can purchase a one of a kind, original print of this image directly from the artist by contacting me via email. The picture is signed and the mat has a hand drawn remarque in graphite. The paper and inks are archival and the printing is done under my direct supervision.
An original print is one on which I have personally supervised the process. It is printed on archival paper using archival inks. I hand sign the piece and draw a remarque on the mat that in some way reflects the original image. This small original drawing adds aesthetic interest as well as value to the print. In the case of " What a Knocker" I might draw a skeleton key or some other related object in graphite as an example.
An original print is a higher value collector's piece because of the additional care and handling. It differs from the prints that are sold by Fine Art America by virtue of the quality of materials, the signature and the remarque. Its increased value to the collector is in its one of a kind status.
I frame the image using gallery molding - clean, square wood molding in either black, white, natural or walnut stain. It has a contemporary look that gives the piece a professional finish.
Shipping & Handling are based on zipcode. I can give you a specific price when I know the destination. The size of the image is 24x36. The mat and frame add to the size. The finished piece is approximately 30x40.
