Annotated in pencil on verso. - - Recognized today as one of the masters of 20th century photography, George Platt Lynes has influenced artists such as Robert Mapplethorpe and Herb Ritts. Although Lynes was commercially successful in New York fashion and portrait photography, his art practice is largely characterized today by his remarkable photographs of nude men, from the 1930s until his death in 1955. Inventive lighting, posing, and cropping techniques used within his carefully staged studio settings, enabled him to visually translate both the physical and psychological nuances of his subjects. – A few minimal nicks in edges, minimally buckled, otherwise in very good condition. - - Sollten Sie detailliertere Zustandsberichte wünschen, kontaktieren Sie uns bitte. / Should you need more detailed condition reports, please contact us.

            George Platt Lynes (1907-1955) was an American photographer known for his groundbreaking work in the fields of fashion and portraiture. Born on April 15, 1907, in East Orange, New Jersey, Lynes initially pursued a career in commercial photography. However, he gained significant recognition for his artistic and personal photographs that explored themes of beauty, male physique, and homoeroticism. In the 1930s and 1940s, Lynes became one of the first photographers to capture the male nude in a fine art context. His images often depicted male models in classical poses, evoking a sense of grace and sensuality. These photographs challenged societal norms and phed boundaries in an era when homoerotic imagery was largely taboo. Lynes also excelled in fashion photography and worked extensively for Vogue and other prominent publications during the 1930s and 1940s. His fashion images combined elegance, drama, and a keen sense of composition, helping to redefine the genre and establish a new standard of sophistication. While Lynes' work was influential and widely praised, his personal life and artistic pursuits were constrained by the social and cultural attitudes of the time. Homosexuality was stigmatized, and his more explicit work was not widely exhibited or published during his lifetime. It wasn't until after his death from lung cancer in 1955 that his photographs received broader recognition and appreciation.Today, George Platt Lynes is recognized as a groundbreaking photographer who challenged societal norms through his exploration of male beauty and homoeroticism. His work has been exhibited in numero meums and galleries, including the Metropolitan Meum of Art and the Meum of Modern Art in New York City. His photographs continue to inspire and influence contemporary artists and photographers. Measures 9.01 x 11.23 Verso is blank. Mounted to archival quality paper."
