Painterly Mid 20th Century Kodak Real Photo/Photogram Postcard of Leafy Stalk

Regular price $50.00

Lovely, with a sort of lustre finish to this Kodak real photo postcard, which somehow enhances it sense of objecthood, making it feel almost like wax resist and ink. I presume made as a photogram, with the stalk placed against paper onto which the chemicals had been applied by brush, hence the bleed around the edges. Rich tonality, feels lush--I've been trying to photograph photographs from a a few different angles, as I have here, to try to give as best sense as I can.

5 3/8" x 3 3/8", very good condition, reads bright and crisp. Unused postcard back, c. 1940s-50s or so, I believe.
