Lillian Bassman: Women

摘要

It's a little ironic that Lillian Bassman, a legend in the fashion photography world of the 1940s and'50s, today stands in the shadows of other photographers whose work and style are more recent. It was, after all, her signature high contrast of black shadows and bright whites that made her famous. You might also be surprised to know that Bassman, aged 91, is still taking pictures and even now pushing the envelope with abstract interests in form.
