Photographs of Flowers

Lee Friedlander's *Photographs of Flowers* is an intimate portfolio of 15 gelatin silver prints showcasing the artist's characteristically sharp and contemplative eye turned toward the natural world. Presented on photo paper mounted to debossed Harumi paper with full margins, the delicate materiality of the presentation complements the quiet beauty of the floral subjects. Housed in an elegant blue cloth-covered clamshell portfolio, the complete set — including colophon and title page — exemplifies Friedlander's mastery of the photographic print as both art object and collector's artifact.
