About this work

This is a photo of a white stag statue standing on a rocky base. Behind it, there’s a building with columns and a tree-covered hill in the distance. The photo looks faded, like it’s old. The stag’s antlers are spread wide, and its body is turned slightly to the side. The photo is placed inside a frame with a color chart and a ruler next to it—this was likely used to check colors or fix prints. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more photos like this.
