| Ruth Bernhard Hips Horizontal 1966-1967 (or earlier) Gelatin silver print 11 x 8.5 ins (image) 18 x 14 (mount) Private collection of Rod Mann LL/66878 Collector notes (Accessed: 27 April 2016)
This is one of Ruth's most sought after prints but somewhere along the line it was mistakenly ascribed to the year 1975 and that mistake was never corrected. She gave me this print in 1966 or '67. It probably went years without being printed until Michael Kenna began printing for her in the mid-seventies. Maybe someone mis-typed a 7 instead of a 6 when the print first started selling and then it seemed too late to make a correction.
