£1,500 -
Vintage monochrome print from the original negative, with the Brassai studio stamp to the verso, inscribed by the photographer on the verso; a little rubbing at the very edges and signs of very light creasing, annotations and some light tape support to the verso, otherwise a sharp, fresh, glossy example; 295 x 235 mm, framed and glazed 470 x 395 mm.
