Mark Shaw
Coco Chanel's famous mirrored staircase, 1957

2018

About the Item

Chanel's famous mirrored staircase was a favorite photographic location -- 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 22" x 32" (for 24" x 36" 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. She is by a staircase with multiple mirrors. She is standing. Her reflection appears seven times. She is wearing a blouse and skirt with a hat and pearls. She rests her hand in her pocket and her other hand holds an object.
