Irving Penn’s fashion photography
Irving Penn was the 20th century’s most influential photographer whose remarkable style set completely new standards to the fashion photography in the 1940’s.Having his models pose in front of plain backdrops, instead of the traditionally used draped settings made his photographs so ahead of his time that many of them came to be appreciated much later than the time they were created. His work was associated with the prestigious Vogue magazine, where he contributed hundreds of brilliant photos, portraying the high fashion with classical simplicity and extraordinary elegance.
