About the Item

Coco Enters her Shop on the Rue Fauborg St. Honore, 1957 -- Photographed in 1957, Coco Chanel is seen entering her boutique in Paris. According to LIFE, Coco is “…credited with either inventing or popularizing the short skirt, the flat chest, the sling pump, turtlenecks…” She is shown here in her “ever present” hat. “ The only reason I wear my hat all the time is so I can tell people I don’t want to see that I am on my way out”. 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 32" x 48" (for 36" x 52" 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. Fashion photography of Coco Chanel entering her shop on the Rue Faubourg. She is wearing a suit and pearls. She also has on a hat, gloves, and sunglasses. She is entering her shop. Behind her, there is a stone pillar with the sign Chanel on it. She is right on the step of her store.
