Signed Limited Edition Landscape Photograph by Lucien Bernhard

This is a monochrome, black-and-white landscape photograph presented in a formal exhibition-style mount. The image depicts a deep-perspective view of a gravel path lined by symmetrical rows of mature trees and low-lying shrubs, creating an 'allee' effect. The composition utilizes significant depth of field to draw the viewer's eye toward a central vanishing point. Physically, the print is housed under glass within a white mat featuring a thin black border accent. A distinctive handwritten signature is visible in the lower right margin, identified as 'Lucien Bernhard', accompanied by a date that appears to be '36' or '56'. In the lower left margin, there are faint pencil markings indicating a limited edition numbering, likely '21/50'. The tonal range is broad, showing rich blacks in the tree trunks and bright highlights where sunlight filters through the canopy. The condition of the print appears stable within its frame, though the glass shows visible reflections during the time of photography. The craftsmanship suggests a professional silver gelatin print or high-quality lithographic reproduction of a 20th-century photographic work. Lucien Bernhard (1883-1972) was a renowned graphic designer and artist, making this a significant piece of mid-century visual art.
