Mark Shaw
Brigitte Bardot in Braids Crossed Ankles, 1958

2018

About the Item

Brigitte Bardot Braids Crossed Ankles, 1958 -- Brigitte Bardot was photographed by Mark Shaw in 1958. Mark, who often predicted who would become stars, thought one of these images of Bardot should have been used as a cover for LIFE, but LIFE, alas, did not have Mark’s vision. Another variation was instead used by the American Society of Magazine Photographers in 1959, as the cover of their industry magazine “Infinity.” Image size is 13.75" x 20" (for 17" x 22" 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 Brigitte Bardot sitting on stone steps. She is wearing a blue dress with a white zig-zag across the hems. Her long blonde hair is braided and tied with a blue ribbon. She is sitting on stone steps and leaning back on her two arms. She is barefoot and crossing her ankles. She is in a stone building with moss and dirt. At the top of the stairs, there is a window. Outside the window there are trees.

Kate Bush "Sensual World" - First print of the edition
By Guido Harari
Located in Austin, TX
Kate Bush by Guido Harari, taken during the official photo shoot for her album The Sensual World in 1989. Guido Harari recalls, "I collaborated with Kate for over ten years, doing her official press photos for “Hounds of Love”, “The Sensual World”, “The Red Shoes” and on set photography for her film “The Line, The Cross & The Curve”. She wanted me to avoid the iconizing of previous shoots, and find a different way of capturing her more naturally. Shooting in the studio for hours allowed for much improvisation as there were to be no props or fancy sets. I used different techniques more to entertain ourselves rather than to experiment! And it worked!" First print...
