Irving Penn - Photographer

lalmrnt5 ... this doesn't look like American Vogue to me ... it's got what looks like Korean on the credits/blurb .... maybe you can check your source, again? I'd be interested in knowing what it really was. :flower:
 
It is because they are reprints, Irving works for no one but US Vogue... the scans from US Vogue weren't as good quality.
 
Ah ... OK ... that sort of makes sense. Thanks.:flower:

Upon close inspection I see it's Vogue Nippon ... so I was way off on the "Korean" thing. :blush: :lol:
 
Possibly my favorite photographer. :heart:

Here's some of his more recent photos shot for US Vogue:



December 06


Sources: scanned by polka_dot, Gold_Star, Avant_Garde and posted in the magazines forum, HFGL

The picture of Lily in the YSL dress is by Demarchelier.
 
i cant stop looking at the covered women picture. very spooky
 
Happy birthday dear Penn!:flower::flower::flower:

Born 16th June 1917.

By the way: Irving Penn prefers just "Penn" - not Mr. Penn, not Irving...:lol:

I just love his work,one of my all time favourites. :heart:

I cant belive this thread is only 3 pages long! :cry: :shock:
 
I can't believe that he's NINETY! He's produced some of the most amazing work in fashion photography.
 
So beautiful!

And just how many times have we seen that same image been replicated through the years?

i love that you can tell that last photo of marisa berensen wasn't airbrushed..
in any photo or magazine today you know that the lines of her front leg would have been straightened out...
i find the natural look of the photo so much more appealing..
