Snake necklace by elsa peretti' platinum/palladium on vellum paper over silver leaf edition 1 of 5 , plus 2 ap ( small size ) signed + numbered with certificate of authenticity ( signature and title are hidden here on the photos to avoid counterfeiting ). Packaged with care and delivered flat silver gives this photograph the distinctive feature of changing tone according to the ambient light. It is this unique ability to respond to the surrounding light that makes this photograph so visually compelling and memorable. Each print is a one-of-a-kind work of art. It is produced by coating a light sensitive platinum and palladium solution on to translucent vellum which is then bonded with silver on the back of the print. A labor intensive and expensive process which results in a beautiful finish and longevity into the hundreds of years. Platinum palladium with silver, print size ( edition of 5 plus 2 ap ) : image size : 24.5 x 24,5 cm / 9.44 x 9,44" print size: 29 x 29 cm / 11,41 x 11,41" sheet : 40 x 40 cm / 15,74 x 15,74" ian sanderson (born 1951 scotland, died 2020 spain) was a scottish photographer. Ian produced images over a 35 year career. For most he worked as both a commercial and fine art photographer; during his last years concentrated on his personal archive. Ian and his widow nathalie have worked for many years with alternative printing techniques in their workshop, isp, creating platinum palladium, silver gelatin, lith or gum bichromate. This culminated in a large retrospective exhibition in barcelona which was sponsored by the nando and elsa peretti foundation. Platinum palladium printing is a traditional photographic technique which precedes silver gelatin technique. Many photographers have worked with it in the past as irvin penn, manuel alvarez bravo, robert mapplethorpe, sebastiao salgado o ormond gigli with its platinum with gold leaf print 'girls in the windows'. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
issues arising from misattribution less
