Stone steps against an abandoned factory wall | Limited Edition of 10
As I meandered near an abandoned factory, a peculiar sight of stone steps against a forlorn wall captivated my attention. The stark contrast between the enduring stone steps and the decaying wall narrated a poignant tale of time and neglect. I captured this scene, where the stoic steps seemed to defy the ravages of time, while the wall bore the marks of abandonment.
The steps, with their solid stance, stood as a symbol of resilience amidst the crumbling surroundings, evoking a sense of melancholy yet inspiring hope. The texture of the weathered wall, wearing tales of bygone industry, added a rustic charm to the scene.
The abandoned factory, with its forsaken walls and enduring steps, offered a glimpse into the past, a time when the hum of machines echoed through these now silent halls. The quiet melancholy of the scene resonated with the transient nature of human endeavor.
This fine-art photograph encapsulates the quiet resilience and the melancholy beauty inherent in this scene of neglect and endurance. The print invites one to delve into the silent narrative of the stone steps against the abandoned factory wall, a humble yet profound representation of time’s relentless march.

Limited Edition of 10
This photograph is released as a signed and numbered limited edition of only 10 prints in total across all available sizes combined—not 10 prints in each size.
Every size is drawn from the same edition. Whether the photograph is purchased as a small print or at the largest available size, it uses one of the 10 edition numbers.
I personally sign and number each print on the reverse, and every print is accompanied by a signed Certificate of Authenticity recording its title, dimensions, medium, edition number, and date of issue.
Once all 10 prints have been sold, the edition will be permanently closed. No additional numbered editions of the photograph will be produced in another size or format.
Premium Archival Fine Art Prints
I personally produce every photograph using archival pigment inks on premium archival paper with a subtle luster finish.
The paper provides rich tonal depth, excellent fine-detail reproduction, and a refined surface that reduces distracting glare under normal indoor lighting. It is especially well suited to both color and black-and-white photography.
Each photograph is sold as an unframed fine art print, allowing it to be framed according to the collector’s space and personal style.
Before a print leaves my studio, I carefully inspect it for color, tonal accuracy, surface quality, and overall presentation. Nothing is outsourced, and every finished print passes through my hands.
Worldwide Delivery Included
Every print is personally produced, inspected, signed, numbered, and carefully packaged by me at my studio in Haliburton, Ontario, Canada.
Worldwide delivery is included in the listed price, so there is no additional shipping charge added during checkout. I select an appropriate tracked delivery service based on the destination, print size, and current shipping requirements.
Delivery times vary by destination and may be affected by customs processing or circumstances beyond my control.
Because I also travel extensively to create new photographic work, studio dispatch may occasionally be delayed while I am away. When that happens, the print will be produced and shipped as soon as I return to the studio.
