Horst P. Horst, best known for his extraordinary
fashion photographs and portraits, can be considered
one of the master photographers of the 20th century.
He is the first photographer to have had an
exhibition at the Louvre, and in 1984 he was given a
retrospective exhibition at the International Center
of Photography in New York, which then traveled to
Montreal, Venice, Florence, and London. During the
1930s Horst made numerous highly regarded portraits
of prominent personalities of the time such as
Marlene Dietrich, Salvador Dali, Jean Cocteau, and
the Duke and Duchess of Windsor. This large-format
1934 portrait is of the photographer George
Hoyningen-Huene, who was an important early
influence on Horst. |
