Designer's Homes, Nico Stands with Dachshunds, Wears Dior, 1960
Located in New York, NY
Designers' Homes Nico Stands with Dachshunds, 1960 -- Nico, (born Christa Paffgen) was a popular fashion model and later lead singer of the The Velvet Underground. She was photographed in 1960 for LIFE along with her two dachshunds in the apartment of Parisian interior designer Henry Samuel. Even though the dachshund is technically from the hound family, they are closer in temperament to the terriers, so no one should be fooled by their over cute appearance! Dachshunds can be strong and feisty one minute and happy to take a big nap the next. Dachshunds, given their size and temperament, make perfect house and apartment dogs. Image size is 22" x 22" (for 24" x 36" paper size). All Mark Shaw prints are made to order in limited editions on Hahnemuhle photo rag paper.

Shop Black and White Photography, Portrait Photography and Other Fine Art Photography

Find a broad range of photography on 1stDibs today.

The first permanent image created by a camera — which materialized during the 1820s — is attributed to Joseph Nicéphore Niépce. The French inventor was on to something for sure. Kodak introduced roll film in the 1880s, allowing photography to become more democratic, although cameras wouldn’t be universally accessible until several decades later. 

Digital photographic techniques, software, smartphone cameras and social-networking platforms such as Instagram have made it even easier in the modern era for budding photographers to capture the world around them as well as disseminate their images far and wide. 

What might leading figures of visual art such as Andy Warhol have done with these tools at their disposal?

Today, when we aren’t looking at the digital photos that inundate us on our phones, we look to the past to celebrate the photographers who have broken rules as well as records — provocative and prolific artists like Horst P. Horst, Lillian Bassman and Helmut Newton, who altered the face of fashion and portrait photography; visionary documentary photographers such as Gordon Parks, whose best-known work was guided by social justice; and pioneers of street photography such as Henri Cartier-Bresson, who shot for revolutionary travel magazines like Holiday with the likes of globetrotting society lensman Slim Aarons.

Find photographers you may not know in Introspective and The Study — where you’ll read about Berenice Abbott, who positioned herself atop skyscrapers for the perfect shot, or “conceptual artist-adventurer” Charles Lindsay, whose work combines scientific rigor with artistic expression, or Massimo Listri, known for his epic interiors of opulent Old World libraries.
