Ann,
The famous picture at the Gare de St. Lazare (sp?)--the man jumping over the
puddle, his heel not quite touching the water--is always cropped. It uses
about 2/3rds of the negative. Hank Carter's printer FAKES the blackline! No
merde, that.
The picture was right behind him on the wall as he spoke, all fuzzy wuzzy
back in the bokeh.
