Description
We are offering here a beautiful, silver gelatine print of the American singer songwriter Tom Waits. It was taken in 1992 in Paris, France by well known editorial portrait photographer Derek Ridgers and it was commissioned by the British music magazine Vox.
It would make an excellent acquisition for any Tom Waits fan.This photograph has never been published or seen publicly before and it has never been offered for sale before.It had been hoped that my father's web site would have been relaunched by now and we would selling his limited edition prints exclusively prints from there. This has been put back a few months (due to the production of a new book) so, in the meantime, we will continue to sell what remains of his prints on Ebay.
Limited editions of Derek Ridgers portraits usually sell for many hundreds of pounds (and occasionally a good deal more than that). He has exhibited world-wide and extensively in this country including at the Barbican and The National Portrait Gallery, and has also had one man shows at the Institute of Contemporary Art and the Photographers Gallery.
This photograph is signed in pencil by the photographer on the back, alongside a couple of his own stamps.The condition of the print is perfect with no creases, folds or discolouration. The illustration shown is a flat bed scan of the actual print being offered. The total print size is 40.3cm by 30.4cm, the image size is 32cm x 21.5cm.
If you look at our feedback you'll see that we now have several repeat purchasers, a fact that may best speak for itself.

Almost all Derek Ridgers' black and white photographs currently for sale on eBay were printed by himself, in his own darkroom on double weight, fibre based paper, and they were always archivally processed (air dried and cold flattened) to museum standards, regardless of end use. The smaller of these prints (12x10 inches or less) were almost all printed at around the time of the original session. They were either duplicates of those supplied to the magazines or record companies that commissioned them, or they were simply edited out of the original selection that was supplied. I describe all these prints as "vintage". Most of the larger prints were made, but not necessarily at the time of the shoot, for my father's portfolio or for various exhibitions.
Thank you for viewing.
