I. M. Vane Collection

My personal collection of rare works of noted left-handed photographer I. M. Vane who by necessity invented the selfie in the 1950s when he turned his camera around in order to snap the shutter with his thumb. Until now he has languished in undeserved obscurity.

Vane multi-mirror technique with "found" mirrors, Minneapolis, MN.
