Coco Chanel's famous mirrored staircase

Creator: Mark Shaw -Coco Chanel
Offered by: Liz O'Brien representing Mark Shaw

Description
Chanel's famous mirrored staircase was a favorite photographic location.

Mark Shaw's informal, grainy, black and white images of Coco Chanel were created using an unobtrusive 35mm camera and film processing methods that enabled him to eliminate all other photographic equipment. Although Shaw's techniques increased the grain and contrast of the photographs, the lack of intimidating, distracting flash and lights allowed him to capture an unusually relaxed Chanel.

Image size 22" x 22"/Paper size 24" x 36"
