Kate #1, 2002 by Leonard Freed is a 10" x 8" handprinted, signed by the photographer black and white photograph, stamped "vintage" by the Freed estate on verso (back of print).

Model, yogini, and photographer Kate remains complicit in striking her own playful, aesthetic, and sculptural poses. The self-assigned photo series "Kate" became a welcome reprieve for Leonard Freed who during a long photo career tackled social justice subjects for which he became well-known as a documentary photographer in the US and in Europe.

Provenance: Freed Estate
