The textures and styles of vintage wall advertisements often capture my attention, and, to the annoyance of people I am with at the time, I am drawn to photograph them. The rough brick, the peeling layers of paint, the bold fonts, and the reference to history. This is a detail of a weathered advertisement painted on the side of a building in Madison, Wisconsin. Image captured with a Fujifilm X-20 camera.  Details Paper Size: 13 x 16.5 inches Image Size: 10.5 x 13.8 inches Margins: about 1.25 inches Paper: 100% cotton rag paper.
