The Golden Days

from $800.00

Limited Silver Gelatin Print | Part of Kim Weston's Expanding Vision Works (c. 1990-2020)

Inspired by Balthus's "The Golden Days," this photograph captures a figure in a red kimono reclining beneath a carousel, suspended between celebration and its aftermath. The juxtaposition of carnival whimsy and solitary repose creates a mood of decadent melancholy—pleasure pursued and its inevitable end. Shot during Kim's Expanding Vision period, the image channels Balthus's ability to infuse everyday moments with psychological complexity and dreamlike atmosphere.

Hand-printed by Kim Weston in his darkroom using traditional methods on museum-quality fiber paper, mounted on archival mat board. Numbered and signed by the artist.
