How did I obtain the photos? They were a family heirloom. The photos are in very good condition, all bearing his signature. The artist was an expert in the silver gelatin technique, and are made of cotton. Each piece measures 113 m x 75 cm and is unframed.
They have their appraisals, registered, and accompanied by their documents.
