• "Limited to one hundred numbered copies ... Printed in China for Nazraeli Press"--Colophon.
• "With the advent of digital photography, the analog process and the color negative will eventually be rendered obsolete and with this body of work, Misrach carefully examines the evocative beauty of the color negative. Using the positive capture--the equivalent of a negative from an analogue camera--from a state-of-the-art digital camera, Misrach creates ... images of landscapes and seascapes in a reversed color spectrum. True colors are inverted to become their photographic, 'negative' opposites"--Announcement of Richard Misrach exhibition at PaceWildenstein, Jan. 10, 2010 to Feb. 20, 2010, viewed online at re-title.com, September 30, 2014.
