This image connects to my earliest awareness of photographs as art objects (images with some emotional connection for me). I have a distinct memory, as a child in the early 1950’s, of looking at gravure images on dark, blade-coated newsprint in the Sunday newspaper. Each week there was an insert that had a photographic feature. Of course at that time they were B&W. The rotogravure process printed on that paper made rich and dark images with amazingly subtle tonality.
