“Photography came as a substitute. I was painfully shy and found talking to people difficult. A camera in my hand gave me a function, a reason to be somewhere, a witness but not an actor.”~ Martine Franck I knew Martine was very ill and I wanted to do something for her that would try and take her mind off the pain she was in. I remembered an overlooked image of hers that I had found in her archive that I loved. It was taken in India in 1964 and thought it symbolized her own very spiritual side.I asked her if she would allow me to produce a small group of platinum prints of this image for her as it reminded me of her own grace. She ever modestly agreed and I was happy and honored to be able to present the image to her a couple of months before she passed away.
