Gates Farm Bridge, Vermont
Francois de Melogue
2023 | Archival pigment print on professional luster fine art paper, 260gsm. | 61 x 41

From directly above, the Gates Farm Bridge cuts across the Seymour River in the cold hush of a Vermont January. Its white clapboard walls hold the only brightness in a palette reduced to grey water, dark bark, and snow. The bare trees push outward from each bank, their branches fine as wire against a flat, indifferent sky.

The current threads through a narrow channel between ice-crusted embankments, black and unhurried. Snow has settled into the angles of the bridge roof and drifted against the banks in smooth, unbroken curves. The bridge receives it all without resistance, its old boards drawn tight by the cold, its usefulness unchanged by a century of winters it has simply outlasted.

Available in three sizes, each signed and numbered with a certificate of authenticity:

Fine Art Print 25 x 17 paper, 24 x 16 image | Limited Edition of 50 | $295
Fine Art Print 43 x 29 paper, 42 x 28 image | Limited Edition of 25 | $795

About the print
Each piece is made on location and printed by hand in my Vermont studio with archival pigment inks rated for over a hundred years of color stability. The 25 x 17 is printed on Premium Satin paper. The 43 x 29 and 61 x 41 are printed on Luster Photo Paper, 260gsm. Each print carries a 0.5 inch archival white border, ships rolled in a heavy tube, and arrives with a signed certificate.

About my work
I spent thirty years cooking in farm-to-table kitchens before returning to the camera. My work is held in private collections across the United States and Europe. A traveling exhibition is currently on view at The University of Vermont Medical Center and Burlington City Hall in Vermont, and my photographs were recently included in the 35th Annual Green Mountain Photography Show. I am represented in Vermont by Artisan's Gallery in Waitsfield, ArtHound in Essex, Artists in Residence in Saint Albans, The Emile Gruppe Gallery, and Remarkable Things in Stowe.

Custom sizes and framing available on request.

Materials used:
