Homage
“Homage” is made with two blocks on Cosmos Blotting Paper. I used blotting paper because I was still hand printing, and needed an absorbent and untextured paper to account for the pressure I could generate by manually. It was a run I made for my cousin, Barry Nitzberg, in commemoration of his father and grandfather, and their roots in Petaluma.
Sol Nitzberg, my grandmother’s uncle, was a union man in Santa Rosa, California, organized the apple pickers, and was tar and feathered in the streets by local businessmen and the sheriff.
