Description

Professionally restored antique print titled Sitting Bear, Arikara Chief from John Edward S. Curtis's book The North American Indian. This marvelous field study is derived from a professional high resolution scan of the original photographic print. The print was in fair / poor condition and needed many hours of restoration work. The restored print retains the same color, vibrancy and sharpness as the original had in 1845.

About Orchard Arts

At Orchard Arts we create museum quality fine art restoration prints that are faithful to the original paper quality, color fidelity, sharpness and period correct typeface metrics. Restoration is done by careful color analysis, color correction, high magnification spotting and repair of the print surface. In some instances repositioning of the plate typefaces and image cropping is done to better accommodate the final print size and for aesthetic appeal. The final restoration print is made with archival pigment ink on acid free fine art paper. The results are museum quality prints that have the same richness, longevity and fidelity as when they were first made.
