Photo : n.d. / n.p.

Photo mounted to a stiff ivory-colored sheet. Casually seated, his right arm resting on a small table with books, Juarez gazes into the distance in this striking, oval, 3/4 length portrait. Boldly signed in the lower center border of the mount. Some wear with light foxing and staining, though not significantly affecting the signature. In very good condition, and very rare.

Oval ; 18.4 x 22.5 cm.
