Print Types
Mark Shaw's photographs can be found in the collections of
many prominent photography collectors. Ralph Lauren, Tommy
Hilfiger, Cindy Crawford, Jennifer Aniston and Martha Stewart
are among the well known figures who own his vintage or posthumous
prints. |
Vintage Prints
Mark Shaw's vintage silver gelatin prints were all produced
under his supervision. There are a limited number of these
prints available  for
sale. Most depict the Kennedy family. There are a few vintage
prints available of Audrey Hepburn, Coco Chanel and other
celebrities. They were produced during the 1950s and early
1960s.
Vintage prints are black and white and are available in a
range of sizes, though most are 8x10, 11x14 or 16x20.
Contact affiliated galleries
for information about vintage prints. All galleries have a
unique image selection in-house or can work with the Archive
to find a print that suits an individual's needs.

Posthumous ( Modern) Prints
Posthumous (modern) prints were made after Mark Shaw's death
in 1969. Originally, The Mark Shaw Photographic Archive worked
with master printer Ned
Gray from Mark Shaw's original negatives to create  editioned
prints in both color and black and white. A small number of
these “silver” posthumous prints are available
through our galleries.
Giclee prints
Most recently, The Mark Shaw Photographic Archive has decided
to offer only giclee posthumous prints. These are modern prints
made from digital files. These images have been scanned from
Mark Shaw's original negatives and transparencies and meticulously
restored under the supervision of Mark Shaw's son, David Shaw.
 The
Mark Shaw Photographic Archive's giclee prints are sold in
limited editions of 15 or 30 and are authenticated, signed
and numbered by David Shaw. They are printed to order on acid-free
paper with archival inks. Giclee prints are available in a
range of sizes. Most are produced in standard digital print
sizes of 11x17, 17x22 and 24x36. Custom sizes are available
upon request.
All Mark Shaw Photographic Archive giclee prints have a lifetime
guarantee against fading or image deterioration. |
