1940s Fashion Photography

Γεννημένη το 1915, η φωτογράφος Genevieve Naylor έκανε το ντεμπούτο της στη Νέα Υόρκη, όπου μετακόμισε στην ηλικία των 18. Το 1945, εκτίθεται στις εικόνες του από το Μουσείο Μοντέρνας Τέχνης. Μετά τον πόλεμο, η φωτογράφος που εργάζεται για περιοδικά όπως το Vogue και Bazaar Harper, είναι διαμορφώνοντας μια οπτική ταυτότητα που την καθιστά έναν καλλιτέχνη με μεγάλη ζήτηση των ματιών. Mashable απέτισε φόρο τιμής στην εκπληκτική πορτρέτα του έκανε στη δεκαετία του '40, που δείχνει τις γυναίκες των οποίων το στυλ παραμένει διαχρονική κομψότητα.
