An editioned gelatin silver print by American photographer Duane Michals (1932-). "I could read it clearly in his palm. There would be a terrible tragedy. My love could not protect him" from Homage to Cavafy Series, published in 1978. Gelatin silver print, hand-written titled on the lower margin. Signed and numbered 8/25 in ink on the bottom of the sheet (as shown). 3 1/2 x 5" for the image size. Displayed in a brand-new black wood archive frame with museum glass.
Michals created ten photographs in honor of Greek gay poet Constantine Cavafy (1863-1933) and his work. As with the poems, these images vary between classical homoeroticism and allegorical tableaux. Cavafy’s poems and Michals’ images are presented on alternating pages.
