Todd Hido – Untitled #2319-B-DMF
One Picture Book Two #34
Todd Hido’s second contribution to our One Picture Book Two series, Untitled #2319-B-DMF, comprises a fold-out, 16x20-inch reproduction of an image Hido made in 1999: a rural house at dusk, surrounded by trees in silhouette against a blue sky.
Untitled #2319-B-DMF is the second of three volumes that will eventually form a triptych: a landscape, a house, and a portrait. (Hido’s first title in the series — Untitled #11856-0820 — presents a landscape photograph likewise printed over an entire form, folding out from the inside back cover. The final title in the triptych will present a portrait.)
