Erwin Blumenfeld Photography

German, 1897-1969
Erwin Blumenfeld (26 January 1897 – 4 July 1969) was an American Jewish photographer of German origin. Born in Berlin, in 1941 he emigrated to the United States, where he soon became a successful and well-paid fashion photographer, working as a freelancer for Harper's Bazaar, Life and American Vogue. His photographic work showed the influence of Dadaism and Surrealism; as is clear in this black and white version of a cover he produced for Vogue on January 1, 1950, featuring the model Jean Patchett.
