Originals in this selection, Expressionism, 1,000 to 2,000 euro.

Feeling before reality

The photo does not want to document, it wants to push through a mood. The break with ordinary perception is exactly the appeal, since familiar things are suddenly seen with stronger feeling.

Before buying in this range
At 1,000 to 2,000 euro, larger prints and fine papers are typical. Look at print quality in the dark areas, because that is where you see whether detail survives. Questions about edition and signature belong here too.
