Description
An intimate and symbolic gelatin silver print titled "The Blessing, Isla del Sol, Bolivia, 1990" by celebrated Mexican photographer Flor Garduno. Signed, titled, dated and numbered on verso. The photograph captures a pair of weathered hands delicately holding a small enamel cup cradling a single white flower. The close-up composition, set against the textured stripes of traditional Andean clothing, isolates the gesture and elevates it to a moment of quiet reverence. Taken on the Isla del Sol, Bolivia, the image reflects Garduno's signature ability to merge cultural specificity with universal themes of ritual, offering, and spiritual grace. The work radiates both tactile realism and poetic depth, hallmarks of Garduno's internationally acclaimed practice.
From a private estate in Birmingham, MI. Additional Provenance: Jackson Fine Art Photography Gallery, Atlanta, GA. Original gallery tag on verso. Dimensions: 20"h x 23"w x .5"d (framed). In very good vintage condition. Full condition reports are available upon request.
