"The Wake, from Spanish Village, 1950"

The Wake, from Spanish Village, 1950
Gelatin Silver Print
9 x 13 1/4 inches
Photographer's archive stamp on verso with "9" written in Artist's hand on verso. Smith had a habit of rating the quality of his own prints on a scale of 1 to 10 with 10 being the best (I've never seen a "10") and writing that number on the back of the photograph. So this print having a "9" means Smith himself thought it was a really nice print.
