ABOUT THE ARTWORK

During a recent vacation in Portugal, my wife and I decide to do a day trip to northwestern Spain to visit the historic and iconic site at Santiago de Compostela in the autonomous community of Galicia. The grand cathedral is breathtaking, in its size and scope and the Obradoiro square and grounds and in the number of people who visit and spend time there. It was, at times, near-overwhelming. Construction on the cathedral began in 1075 under the reign of Alfonso VI of Castile -- and, it was built along the same lines as the church of Saint Sernin in Toulouse. While there I made probably a hundred or so shots in different locations around the grounds, both interior and exterior. This one, offered on Hahnemuhle Fine Art Baryta, numbered and signed, measures 31.8 x 20 -- or 32.6 x 20.8 with borders . . .

I'm a national award-winning journalist and nine-time Pulitzer nominee who's made hundreds of TV and radio appearances, including NPR and Good Morning America. Author of Swee'pea [Simon & Schuster / Atria], a critically acclaimed book centered around New York City playground basketball legend Lloyd (Swee'pea) Daniels, I've been featured in several documentary films -- including the Emmy Award-winning ESPN 30-for-30 Big Shot. While I've worked primarily as a sports reporter, news reporter, columnist and investigative journalist, I've also done travel writing and photography during a four-decade career at a major New York daily paper, and I'm currently shopping my first novel. This marks my first foray into selling my fine art photography . . . P.S. I've noticed that when it comes to calling up full screen versions of some photos they appear to lack clarity. PLEASE use the "Original" file -- especially, when you're looking at Open Edition prints -- because those files appear to be proper large-scale renditions. Hoping this gets rectified . . .
