If you’re looking for a Christmas present for the person who has everything, I highly suggest a Mark Shaw photograph.  My favorites includes model posing in interiors but the most amazing are models posing with famous artists in their studios.  Those were the days.  Bon Weekend!

    Love!! I’m going to drink these up all morning. Where do you find these things? My favorite is the one with Fernand Leger, one of my favorites. You, darling, are the chicest!

    What a fabulous gift to get or give – the photography of Mark Shaw is just beautiful and although most are fun another era, they are timelessly classy! Have a wonderful weekend, Cynthia

    Thanks for the views of the apartments of Chagall, Dufy, Miro etc. The photos make these artists come alive. Some of these models were very tall–the scale would lead you to believe that some of the rooms were filled with very small scaled furnishings. Interesting. thanks. Mary

    Lee Radziwill is just too, divine.

    What wonderful photographs, so iconically reflecting the time and a perfect marriage between fashion and interior design.

    Cheers,

    I love the way models posed and placed their feet – so pretty! Today’s pigeon toed/agressive/overtly sexual poses do not inspire me at all.
