Companion photographic portraits, curated to hang together. Two iconic sitters rendered in rich black-and-white — one in warm burl, one in crisp black oak — for a quietly striking, gallery-ready pairing.
Framed sizes — Ilse Bing: 14.25″ × 14.25″ • Rebecca Salsbury Strand: 8.75″ × 10.75″.
Framing & materials — Ilse Bing: Vintage burl veneer frame with a beautifully figured grain and inky black inner trim that sharply outlines the portrait. The warm wood tones soften the graphic contrast of the photograph, giving it a grounded, lived-in feel. Hand-restored vintage frames; new acid-free backing, felt bumpers, and new hanging wire. Standard picture glass glazing. • Rebecca Salsbury Strand: Deep black oak frame with a matte finish and beveled edges for a clean, architectural profile. Double mat with an outer true white and inner matte black, creating a layered window that intensifies the photograph’s tonal range. Hand-restored vintage frames; new acid-free backing, felt bumpers, and new hanging wire. Standard picture glass glazing.
Condition — Each frame is vintage or gently used and restored by hand in our Hudson Valley studio; expect subtle, period-appropriate patina.
Ready to hang — Arrives fully finished and ready for the wall.
Care — Dust gently with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid direct sunlight and moisture to keep your print vibrant and your frame in its best shape.
Shipping — All artwork is safely packaged and ships from our Hudson Valley studio. Each piece is insured and tracked for peace of mind.
Custom Requests — In addition to our curated collections, we’re also a full-service framing studio — happy to frame your own artwork, prints, or family photos with the same care and craftsmanship. If you’re drawn to a particular frame style, print, or size not listed, reach out — we often accommodate custom pairings and commissions when materials allow.
Collection Note — From Season I — The First Impression Series (October 2025): a quiet invitation to collect what speaks to you — not what’s trending.
