Face of a Floating Swimmer, Bubbles – Small Lumen Print, Pool Ladies Series by Michael Joseph

FACE OF A FLOATING SWIMMER, BUBBLES — SMALL LUMEN PRINT

Unique lumen print made from an original photograph by Michael Joseph

Original photograph: London, 1987
Pool Ladies series
Handmade in the Dordogne by Justine Joseph, summer 2026
Presented with a black mount

This small lumen print offers an intimate, almost abstract close-up of a swimmer’s face floating at the surface of the water, her eyes closed.

Bubbles, reflections and ripples overlap her face, creating a soft, ethereal image somewhere between photography and abstraction.

Handmade from an image from Michael Joseph’s celebrated Pool Ladies series, the lumen process introduces its own variations in tone and texture, making this a truly unique piece.

The small format and black mount enhance the image’s intimate and slightly mysterious quality.

A contemporary reinterpretation bringing together Michael Joseph’s photographic archive and Justine Joseph’s experimental printmaking.
