Alec Soth — Anna. Kentfield, California.
Alec Soth

Anna. Kentfield, California.

2017

In this large-scale pigment print from 2017, Alec Soth turns his lens on Anna in Kentfield, California, composing a portrait that balances psychological intimacy with a cool, documentary remove. The subject is rendered with Soth's characteristic attention to the quiet drama embedded in ordinary life, where environmental details accumulate meaning alongside the human figure. At 147.3 by 121.9 centimeters, the work commands significant physical presence, inviting prolonged looking and rewarding the viewer who lingers in its layered narrative. Soth, whose practice has long been defined by extended road-based projects across the American landscape, produced this work during a period of sustained reflection on connection and solitude in contemporary life. The scale of the print, which follows the tradition of large-format photography associated with his medium-format and large-format camera work, elevates the subject beyond simple portraiture into something closer to social document. The pigment print medium ensures exceptional color fidelity and archival longevity, qualities that matter deeply to serious collectors building lasting collections. Available through Fraenkel Gallery, a long-standing champion of Soth's work, and hand-signed by the artist, this photograph represents a meaningful opportunity to acquire a mature, single work from one of the most significant American photographers working today. Collectors seeking depth, narrative richness, and institutional presence in a photographic work will find this piece a compelling addition to any considered collection.
