About the Item

For a portrait of a woman in Leopard Bikini by Roberta Fineberg, the photographer focuses in on a subject, a woman with long fingernails, a sun-tanned torso, and legs dangling into water. The image screams 'New Yawk we love you' and all its beautiful people enjoying being young and hot poolside in the city. Leopard Bikini, 1999 by Roberta Fineberg is 11" x 14" gelatin silver print in an edition of 5. The work is signed, titled, dated on recto (front of image). Provenance: RF Archive *** Artist's Bio: As a photographer and visual artist, Roberta Fineberg (RF) focuses on the themes of serendipity, inventiveness, and development of ideas for her photography, video, installations, works on paper, and painting.
