About the Item

Coco Creates Jewelry, Front, 1957 -- Coco Chanel creates jewelry in her workroom. She works with plasticine surrounded by boxes overflowing with "jewels." Mark Shaw's informal, grainy, black and white images of Coco Chanel were created using an unobtrusive 35mm camera and film processing methods that enabled him to eliminate all other photographic equipment. Although Shaw's techniques increased the grain and contrast of the photographs, the lack of intimidating, distracting flash and lights allowed him to capture an unusually relaxed Chanel. Image size is 40" x 59" (for 44" x 63" paper size). All Mark Shaw prints are made to order in limited editions on Hahnemuhle photo rag paper. Each print is Estate stamped on the back and signed and numbered by David Shaw, and accompanied by a letter of authenticity. Lead time is four to six weeks, but we often receive them sooner. *Please note this image is available in several sizes. Prices increase as editions sell out. A black and white photograph of Coco Chanel sitting at a desk making jewelry. She is wearing a blazer with a black collar. She also has pearls and a hat on. She has a cigarette hanging out of the corner of her mouth. She is reaching into a bowl of jewels. She has many bowls of jewels around her. In front of her, there is a black mat with jewels on it.
