Vintage Björk 8×10 Photograph – Original Darkroom Print
by Chicago Photographer Michael Wisnieux – Handwritten Darkroom Notes – Sugarcubes Era
This listing is for a true vintage gelatin silver print of Björk, printed directly by Chicago photographer Michael Wisnieux in the late 1980s–early 1990s.
This is not a reproduction or modern print — it is an artist-made original from Wisnieux’s personal archive.
The back of the print features Wisnieux’s handwritten darkroom annotations, including dodging, burning, exposure times, and contrast grades — authentic period darkroom notes that confirm this is a vintage, photographer-produced print.
