Hey all, here's one to revive this thread. The caveat is that I'm a HORRIBLE photographer, and my basement studio doesn't lend itself nicely to shooting. With that in mind, please understand that it's not a good representation of the painting. Once I get it photographed, I'll post the professionally-done photo.
Anywho, here's an 11"x14" portrait of the Iron Horse from 1936. It comes from Conlon's extensive library - man I'm falling in love with his shots all over again!! I just love how well he uses his natural light, especially with showing the reflection of the skies on each player's skin. Or at least, that's how I interpret what I'm seeing.
Yeah, so, I was thinking of doing a series of portraits of the '36 Yankees and Giants, and I thought this would be as good as a start as any.
