Ya Mero (Almost), Manuel Álvarez Bravo, Portfolio published by Acorn Editions Limited, gelatin silver print
This circular, black and white print represents a number of figures moving logs down a river using log rolling hooks. In a distant boat there are two figures, as well as four on the left bank and three on the right bank of the river. Two central figures dominate the composition, spearing logs with the pointed ends of their log rollers. At the bottom of the print is a small still life that includes some of the implements of logging—a long saw, an axe, a log roller, and a chain—draped over a tree stump.
