Miles working out on the long speed bag, Gleason’s gym, NYC, June, 1970.

The archival printing is what sold me—I’ve had it up in a bright room for months and the blacks are still deep as the day it arrived. That shot of him working the speed bag feels so alive, like you can hear the rhythm.
The grain on this print really captures the grit of that old gym — you can almost hear the bag thumping. It's a heavy, well-made piece that feels like it belongs in a gallery, not just a frame.
The archival paper has a nice weight to it, and the detail in his hands on the bag is sharp even up close. It’s exactly the kind of gritty, in-the-moment shot I wanted for my office, and the platinum finish gives it a depth that photos on my screen just can’t match.
