Description from the seller

Franco Fontana (born 1933)

Architecture – Marrakech (attrib.)

Color photograph | Chromogenic print (C-print) | Limited edition 113/120

Limited color photograph by one of the most eminent representatives of color photography in the 20th century. The work presents the minimalist language of form characteristic of Franco Fontana, the geometric framing of architecture, and an intense, saturated color palette teetering on the edge of abstraction.

The motif and color palette point to North African architecture, most likely Marrakesh (Morocco) — a location that frequently appears in the artist's travel photography series.

The photograph alone, 43 x 28 cm.
Overall dimensions: 63×46 cm.

Please review the photos that show the actual condition of the items; they are also part of the description of the items listed for auction.

I send shipments via reputable courier companies, with a tracking option, and I also purchase insurance for the shipment.
The items will be well protected and reinforced. A large, sturdy package.
I will send the package very quickly, usually the next day after receiving the address details, and I promptly inform the buyer about it.
Owned items come from my private collection.
I warmly invite you to participate in the auction.
