IRVING PENN

Penn was an American photographer, most famously known for his portraiture and fashion photography. Penn also photographed still life objects in great detail- the arrangements create a visually interesting appearance. His photographs were always clear and visually interesting. I really like how diverse his works were. Also, his work with fashion, like for Vogue, is very creative and represents the hottest styles of his time. For example, this picture was taken for Vogue in 1949. Having high visual interest, the photograph shows both fashion of the time and creative use of a still life object.
