Abstract
|
:
|
Fashion editor Bettina Ballard wrote in the April 1960 issue of Town & Country, “André was the first to bring Surrealism to fashion pictures.” Although her claim may be debatable, the published work of photographer André Durst establishes a distinct point of view and provides visual representations of the most important couturiers, milliners, and designers of the period, yet history has not remembered him to the same extent as his peers. André Durst (1907- 1949) was born to a prominent French family and according to some, the heir to a Marseilles Soap, or Savon de Marseille, fortune, but he would become the primary photographer for French Vogue during the later part of the 1930s. Despite extensively photographing for notable fashion publications such as Harper's Bazaar and Vogue throughout the decade, little is known or written about the photographer André Durst.
