Andy Katz (American, Contemporary ). Untitled color photograph of the Taj Majal, 20th century. Pencil signed on the lower right. A beautiful photograph of the Taj Mahal by Andy Katz. Katz has traveled across the globe, photographing a wide range of subjects throughout his journeys - "from the deserts of Namibia to the disappearing Jewish World of Eastern Europe to the rolling hills of the California wine country" - and India has proven to be a most intriguing muse for Katz. In his words, "As difficult as it can be in such a vast country, I have been lucky to get to know much of India. To say that I have fallen in love with it is an understatement; I take it with me wherever I go — its colors, its flavors, its remarkable personality and personalities." Size of photo: 6.3" L x 9" W (16 cm x 22.9 cm) Size of matte board: 16" L x 19.875" W (40.6 cm x 50.5 cm)
