The last dance

A continuation of my "Combustion" series, which features hundreds of French knots, layered in various sizes and colors to build dimension and movement onto the vintage photographs.

Embroidery is created by hand, directly onto the photograph, using French cotton embroidery thread and American hand-dyed silk thread. 

The vintage photograph measures about 5.25"x3.25" and is unframed. The piece will be signed and dated on the back in pencil.

Please note: As this is a vintage photo, there is some wear and damage on the edges of the photograph, including slight rippling along the edges. The bottom right of the photograph has a surface tear, and the bottom left of the photograph has discolored residue. Please contact me if you need additional close up images of these areas.
