Gentl And Hyers, Photographer, New York

Description

This overhead still life features vintage restaurant ephemera from Le Veau D'Or arranged on a red and white checkered tablecloth. A stained paper menu with handwritten headings and typed French dishes serves as the central piece, surrounded by a circular coaster, illustrated postcards, and matchbooks featuring classic animal artwork. The composition uses natural lighting to highlight the aged paper textures and sepia tones of the printed items against the bold pattern of the tablecloth.
