Irving Penn


Last week I went into a bookshop minding my own business when this book hit me for six. I had forgotten how incredible Penn’s still lives are. They are as contemporary and fresh now as they have ever been; its easy to see where some of the best practitioners of the genre get part of their inspiration from. The book has many of the images he shot for Vogue as well as some of his other experimental ideas.
