I photographed the uncrating of Pablo Picasso’s “Girl Before a Mirror” at the High Museum of Art in Atlanta for the Midtown Patch newspaper on Wednesday, September 28, 2011. The work of art is one of over 100 that will be shown between Oct. 15 and April 29, 2012 at the museum. Picasso to Warhol will showcase works of art from various artists. These are my favorite images.
