A little gallery of Lee Miller....the photographer as model
The other day I posted a 1927 photo by Arnold Genthe of the Photographer Lee Miller. Being a huge fan of her photography, today I'm posting a little gallery of photographs of her....not as photographer, but as the subject......enjoy.
Yes, very.....but what a genius as a photographer. She's seen as Man Ray's muse and mistress, and not as an equal, unfortunately. And, later through her relationship with Roland Penrose...I most definitely see her's as infinitely superior to his talent. Her work was amazing to me, especially the later work during the war.
What a beauty!!!
