GINAL SAMUEL GOTTSCHO (1875-1971) 'SILHOUETTE OF MIDTOWN MANHATTAN' GELATIN SILVER PHOTOGRAPH
This is just a great original piece. I started buying Samuel Gottscho photographs about 10 years ago. I have thought his photographs of New York are some of the best you are going to find and are truly undervalued. They are slowly creeping up in value but I think based on the quality of the work, I think they have a long way to go. For those not familiar with Gottscho, I have included his biography below. This is one of his more famous images. I have found a few references to this image on some websites and it is in the Getty but have not found one come to market since it last sold at Swann back in 2012. A wonderful original gelatin silver photograph. Image measures 7 1/2 x 10 1/4 inches on original mount measuring 11 x 13 3/4 inches Signed and titled in pencil on the mount below the image. Excellent original condition. Original simple black frame. Really just one of the better New York photographs you are going to find. Frame measures 11 1/4 x 14 1/4 inches. If you collect Gottscho, make sure you check my store for the other example I am also selling.
For those not familiar with Gottscho his biography from the Library of Congress reads:"The Gottscho-Schleisner collection is the work of two architectural photographers, Samuel H. Gottscho [1875 - 1971] and William H Schleisner [1912 - 1962]. Samuel Gottscho acquired his first camera in 1896. From 1896 to 1920 he photographed part time specializing in houses and gardens as he particularly enjoyed nature, country scenes and landscapes. After attending several architectural photograph exhibitions, Gottscho decided to perfect and improve his own work and make the acquaintance of several architects and landscape architects in the area. After 23 years as a traveling salesman, Gottscho became a professional full time photographer at the young age of 50. Gottscho believed he created some of his best work at the age of 70. William Schleisner joined Gottscho in his business in 1935. "
