A beautiful tribute to an extraordinary pioneer. Pushing the shutter button was just the beginning, her brilliance lay in darkroom manipulation, no easy task in the days before photoshop. That melancholic slideshow soundtrack by the Gotan Project puts me in the mood for brandy, let's all raise a glass in honor of this great artist.
Dash , every time I drop by to you I learn something amazing. I am ashamed to say that I didn't know much about Lillian Bassman's work, these pictures are breathtaking. An era caught on film bon weekend Sharon x
Superb. A brilliant photographer. Her use of light was truly masterful. I adore the photo of her that you posted here. She was a true visionary. Magnificent work.
Yes, utterly, utterly timeless and classical work. How very beautiful the photographs are ~ and what a talent!
