William Eggleston. The Democratic Forest, 1983.

Published by Steidl Verlag in limited edition.

Steidl's seal, title and author on the back of the image.

Total dimensions: 25.3 x 19 cm on semi-gloss paper.

Fine condition (with small imperfections).

William Eggleston, a pioneer in legitimizing color photography as an art form, is recognized for his ability to find beauty and meaning in the everyday, transforming seemingly mundane scenes into iconic visual compositions. Eggleston's work, such as his influential William Eggleston's Guide series, revolutionized fine art photography by challenging traditional notions of subject matter and aesthetics, turning everyday scenes from the American South into universal symbols of the sublime in the banal.

William Eggleston is one of the greatest photographers of the 20th and 21st centuries, especially in the use of color and documentary photography, along with Stephen Shore, Saul Leiter, Joel Meyerowitz, Alex Webb, Martin Parr, Vivian Maier, Garry Winogrand, Diane Arbus, Robert Frank, and Walker Evans.

Very firm but slow delivery. I'm disappointed by the quality of the print, also no real certificate came with this print. A lot of info in the ad, but the item itself is not worth this price.

Seller's response

Good morning, I appreciate your feedback so that we can improve. The auction closed on a Friday afternoon, it was shipped on Monday and arrived on Thursday morning from Spain to Belgium. You say that it does not come with any real certificate, neither in the text nor in the photographs is it offered that the article is accompanied by a certificate. The text of the advertisement is the description of what you can see in the photographs. And as for the price, it is an article that is offered without a reserve price. Therefore the final price is determined by the last bid, and can be €1. Thank you very much.

Thanks received in great condition. Great photograph.!!

It's no fotoprint but cheap copyprint made with ordinary printer on paper not to be used for decent fotoprint. Not worth more than 50cents

We are sorry to hear that you do not like the print. But this is a subjective opinion. These prints are almost 20 years old, and no specific paper weight or type is specified in the description (because I don't know), and you have quite a few detailed photographs of the item. You have received the same item as shown in the photographs.
