Magnum Photos is an international photographic cooperative owned by its photographer-members, with offices in New York City, Paris, London and Tokyo. It was founded in Paris in 1947. This gorgeous piece of photographic art was sold during their "Works of Imagination" sale, in cooperation with Aperture that was held for seven days in October of 2020. Prints were limited in number to only the prints sold during these seven days (though not physically numbered). We have had it professionally matted and framed with UV Plexi and all archival materials.

From Alec Soth - “This image was published as part of my series, The Last Days of W, to coincide with the 2008 US presidential election. For me, this photo was a way of marking a period of darkness in American history. Looking back at it now, it’s hard to imagine the feeling of hopefulness I felt back then.”
