Simon Marsden, a British photographer, is the gatekeeper to a foreboding, ghostly realm of shadowy, ancient buildings and mist-shrouded lands. Marsden’s strong belief in apparitions and their presence in our world is expressed in magnificent, sinister black and white photos. He often utilizes black and white film in ominous photos of landscapes and architecture in Europe and the United States. Marsden’s world-renowned work haunts many museums, including Los Angeles’ J. Paul Getty Museum and the Victoria and Albert Museum in London.
This image was exposed on infrared film by the photographer to achieve a grainy quality intended to evoke a mystical feeling.
This giclée print delivers a vivid image with maximum color accuracy and exceptional resolution. The standard for museums and galleries around the world, giclée (French for “to spray”) is a printing process where millions of ink droplets are sprayed onto the paper’s surface. With the great degree of detail and smooth transitions of color gradients, giclée prints appear much more realistic than other reproduction prints. The high-quality paper (235 gsm) is acid free with a smooth surface.
