The work of Lillian Bassman (*1917) exudes a captivating elegance and a sure sense of style. As longstanding art director for Harper’s Bazaar, she shaped both the changing style of the magazine’s layout and the fashion photography of the 1940s to 60s. In the 1950s she introduced a new feminine ideal – long-limbed and swan-necked – into her atmospherically charged scenes. By experimenting with various photographic exposures and darkroom techniques, she lent her black-and-white photographs a unique, almost painterly quality.
