Fallen Leaves #0

About this Artwork

I gathered these leaves in the cemetery of Kibbutz Shefayim. The kibbutz was established by my grandmother and grandfather in 1935. Both are buried in the Kibbutz cemetery. My father served as an infantry officer in the Shaked reconnaissance unit, and later in reserve duty, as a reconnaissance officer in the 87th Battalion of the Armored Corps. In the Yom Kippur War, he led the force that headed the reconnaissance battalion, brigade, and division in operation "Abirey Lev" (Heart Knights) that changed the course of the war. He too is buried in Shefayim. On the last memorial day, I walked among the graves and encountered a variety of leaves that had begun to decompose but were still preserved. These are my Fallen Leaves. ***** Each print comes with a hand signed and numbered certificate of authenticity. Each certificate is printed on a branded Hahnemühle watermarked paper. The paper has deckled edges with UV-Security fibers and is comprised of two hologram stickers with unique serial numbers - one goes on the certificate and the other on the back of the print. Each print also includes an outer white border, with the image name, copy number, and a printed signature. If you are interested in additional details about the image, you are welcome to contact me through the site.

Prints are made on the finest Hahnemühle papers, including Photo Rag Ultra Smooth, Photo Rag Bright White, and Photo Rag FineArt Baryta. Hahnemühle papers are highly regarded as the pre-eminent media for limited edition fine art prints and are printed in a professional studio, ensuring consistency and exceptional quality for every print. When shipping prints, the most robust method available for the size & quantity of prints will be used. Where possible, the prints will be sent out flat. Print packages will always be protected for transit. Giclée and C-type Printing: C-type prints are printed using a laser process and produce a high-resolution image with great color depth. Giclée prints are printed using an ink jet process on a wide range of papers suitable for fine art prints. The Giclée process offers less color depth than C-type prints, however, the texture of the paper gives the print a fine art appearance. Each Giclée fine art print is produced under careful supervision and to the highest standard.
