Ken Beckle's "Faces" Prize Winning Portrait (1970) (oversize)

A stunning portrait taken by Ken Beckles, which would go on to win first prize in Life magazines "faces" category for their "Portrait of America" contest.

The oversize (11x14") format of the print makes it easy to see why this photograph won first prize, putting on full display the depth of emotion put on by very subtle expressions in the subjects.

Contains copy on back describing the contest.

Print is on doubleweight photographic paper an in good condition, bearing minor warping and surface damage. Would still display very nicely.
