Up for auction we have a lovely image by contemporary photographer, SYLVIA PLACHY. Entitled Marika's Wedding, Budapest, 1964, this gelatin silver print measures 8 1/2" x 12 1/4" on an 11" x 14" sheet. It is titled and notated in pencil on verso. This piece is in very fine condition. There is a bit of waving at the edges of the print; when displayed in its mat there is no evidence of this issue. This image is featured in Ms. Plachy's latest photo book "Self-Portrait with Cows Going Home" (see below).
