I purchased a collection of original nautical photographs about a year ago and have been holding onto them for my personal collection. Because my collection seems to be growing to large, I have decided to sell a couple of them. This is one of 2 edwin levick photographs I am selling this week. I am also offering a morris rosenfeld original photograph as well. A great chance to really build your collection. For those not familiar with levick, I have included his biography below. This is one of the nicer photographs in the collection. A stunning view of a sailboat in all her glory. Image measures 9 1/2 x 7 1/2 inches. Outstanding matte photograph with excellent contrast. On original mount with photographers printed signature lower right. Mount measures 13 x 11 inches. About as good as you are going to find. One of the finer examples of levicks work.For those not familiar with levick his biography from a maritime museum reads: “edwin levick came to america in 1899 from london to work as a translator of arabic for the guaranty trust company in new york city. He soon turned his attention to photography and was supplying his photographic services to the chicago tribune, the new york times, and the new york herald tribune as well as rudder and motorboat magazine. He began to write for newspapers and photograph for magazines of the day; he eventually decided to specialize in maritime photography. Within a few years, levick’s successful business had expanded having to employing seven assistants, including morris rosenfeld, who would later gain a reputation as a premier maritime photographer in his own right. In 1929, levick died at his home in new rochelle, new york, at the peak of his career at the age of 61. The new rochelle standard declared he was the “best known maritime photographer in the nation…. A genuinely artistic soul.” He had lived in new rochelle for the past fifteen years and was a member of the new rochelle yacht club. ” less
