Irving Penn, born on June 16, 1917, initially wanted to become a painter. Although at age 26 he took a job designing photographic cover for the fashion magazine "Vogue". Soon he was known as a fashion designer. Penn also became an influential portraitist. He photographed many celebrities, moving that celebrities personality into the photograph.
This photo instantly drew me in when i was on Google images looking at different Irving Penn photos. There's something about the picture that makes it mysterious but beautiful all at the same time. The details on the dress are amazing and the shadows in the background illuminate the girl.
