^Lot 609 Man Ray

Influential American-born artist (1890–1976) who carved out an important niche in the history of modern art with his pioneering Dadaist works and his distinctive photographs and solarized photographic images dubbed “rayographs.” Postcard featuring one of Man Ray’s distinctive “rayographs,” 6 x 4, postmarked 1973, and signed on the reverse in black ballpoint, “With thanks from Man Ray.” In very good condition, with some dings and impressions to the image, multiple notations in another hand, an address label, and a postmark stamp, which lightly affects the beginning of the sentiment.
