Photo shows a landscape in California, which Christo and Jeanne-Claude gave a new look in 1991 by erecting no fewer than 1760 large yellow rain screens, 6 m high and more than 8 m in diameter. This was actually only 1 side of the project: at the same time they did the same in Japan, where they had 1340 (blue) rain screens planted. The entire project cost USD 26 million.
To finance their projects, the Christo's have taken (or had made) pictures of them, usually by their "house photographer" Wolfgang Volz. These photos were subsequently published in 300 copies by the publishing house Poligrafo in Barcelona. A limited number of these were signed. This one is unsigned!
