Irving Penn



http://www.irvingpenn.org/

Irving Penn was an early American photographer who photographed subjects such as Marcel Duchamp, Pablo Picasso, and Georgia O'Keeffe. He developed a unique and new (at the time) style of photographing his subjects on a plain black or grey background. I'm drawn to his simplistic but effective style because of the way he can make his subjects so intriguing despite the straightforward way of capturing them.
