    The negative from which the print was made is part of the Holtermann collection (ON 4) but is filed at XR 46 because of its size.

  • Attributions / conjectures

    It is not known when or by whom the print was made, but may be the work of Vyvan Curnow, 1953

    This is a silver gelatin contact print that has been tinted to appear like an albumen print. It has been taken from one of three extant giant glass plate negatives from a possible four originally. The whereabouts of the fourth is unknown.

    This negative was accidentally broken in 1980 and was reassembled by the Collection Care Branch in 2016.
