Chuck Henningsen Original Platinum Print Atonement, Barcelona, Spain, 1988

Charles is one of the most innovative photographers in history. He trained and worked with Ansel Adams in the early 1970's and then progressed into uncharted photographic areas in platinum, solarization and Cibachrome. Chuck was born in 1935 in Des Moines, Iowa. Due to dementia, Chuck is no longer printing photography and his world class Platinum, Silver and Cibachrome darkroom has been disassembled. The limited remaining photographs are being sold at this time. As this was one of a kind platinum and Cibachrome studio in the world and these photographs were very difficult produce, when these remaining images are sold, there will be no more production of these images. Chuck's photographic work has been features in numerous leading photographic magazines such as Rangefinder, Camera and Arts This photograph is an original printed, numbered and signed by Charles Henningsen in his photographic studio in Taos, New Mexico. This print is being sold by the Henningsen Family. Platinum Prints I feel that the Platinum emulsion offers greater subtleties than any other photographic process. First, the platinum emulsion is hand coated on a fine, 100% rag paper and then contact printed under a high intensity light source. Large format platinum printing is an unto itself and takes many years to master.
