Some of our favourite photographs by Huene and friends, currently on display at Nagoya City Art Museum, Japan 🇯🇵 in the exhibition ’Marie Laurencin et la Mode’ until 3 September 2023. The exhibition centres on the intertwined creative lives of Marie Laurencin and Gabrielle ‘Coco’ Chanel in Paris in the 1920s and 30s. It includes works by many of their artistic and fashionable friends, from Huene, Horst, and Man Ray, to Jeanne Lanvin and Madeleine Vionnet. Images: Horst P.

George Hoyningen-Huene’s photographs first appeared in Vogue in 1926, though the magazine’s first photographic cover wasn’t printed until 1932. This spectacular rainbow cover design by the Spanish illustrator Eduardo Benito dates from September 1926, and is followed by some of Hoyningen-Huene’s very earliest professional photos… Happy Pride Parade day in London! 🌈🌈🌈 #vogue #eduardobenito #fashionillustration #fashionphotography #1920sphotography #georgehoyningenhuene #blackandwhitephotography

Another Hollywood hero, Ernst Lubitsch (1892-1947) was known as one of the most talented film-makers of his generation. His movies were described as ‘At once elegant and ribald, sophisticated and earthy, urbane and bemused, frivolous yet profound.’ Photographed by George Hoyningen-Huene in Los Angeles, 1934 #ernstlubitsch #georgehoyningenhuene #blackandwhitephotography #oldhollywood #1930s #losangeles

Born in Italy this day in 1897, Frank Capra went on to become an award-winning film director. His most famous movies include It’s a Wonderful Life and It Happened One Night. He won a staggering six Oscars in the 1930s and 1940s. George Hoyningen-Huene photographed Capra sometime around 1934. We see the director at work, with a script in hand, on a movie set in LA. #frankcapra #georgehoyningenhuene #blackandwhitephotography #oldhollywood #losangeles #1930s #oscarwinner

📣 EXHIBITION ANNOUNCEMENT Jackson Fine Art will open new exhibitions on 9 June featuring the work of George Hoyningen-Huene, Bastiaan Woudt and Mona Kuhn. These practitioners are unified by their exploration of classical subjects and shared art-historical references but are unique in the method by which they allow these common threads to collide with the contemporary. Jackson Fine Art is a world-renowned gallery with a 33-year history of supporting artists and collectors of the best fine art photography of the 20th and 21st century. In spring 2023, the gallery expanded into a spectacular, custom-built space at 3122 E Shadowlawn Ave NE, Atlanta. #jasksonfineart #atlanta #georgehoyningenhuene #bastiaanwoudt #monakuhn #photographycollector #blackandwhitephotography
