Francesco Scavullo Prints and Multiples
American, 1921-2004
Francesco Scavullo (1921–2004) was an American fashion photographer celebrated for his glamorous, highly polished style that helped define the look of late-20th-century popular culture. Born in Staten Island, New York, Scavullo began experimenting with photography in his teens, often using his sisters as models. After assisting Horst P. Horst at Vogue, he established his own career and quickly became one of the most in-demand photographers of his generation.
Scavullo is best known for his decades-long collaboration with Cosmopolitan, where his bold, sensual, and confident images of women graced more than three decades of covers, beginning in the 1960s. His portraits extended well beyond fashion: he photographed countless celebrities, from Hollywood stars to musicians and cultural icons, including Barbra Streisand, Madonna, Grace Kelly, and Andy Warhol. His approach balanced glamour with intimacy, making his subjects appear both larger-than-life and approachable.
Over the years, Scavullo published several books, including Scavullo on Beauty (1972), Scavullo Women (1982), and Scavullo: Photographs 1948–1984, which solidified his place in both the fashion and fine art worlds. His work has been exhibited internationally and is part of major collections, including the Museum of Modern Art in New York.
For collectors, Scavullo’s posters, exhibition prints, and signed ephemera hold strong value. They not only capture the aesthetics of an era but also represent the enduring appeal of an artist whose images helped shape the public’s perception of beauty, celebrity, and style in the latter half of the 20th century.to

Located in Surfside, FL
Francesco Scavullo (January 16, 1921 – January 6, 2004) was an American fashion photographer best known for his work on the covers of Cosmopolitan and his celebrity portraits.
Scavullo was born in Staten Island, New York City. Early on, he used his father's camera to photograph his sisters who would model for him. After graduating from high school in 1945, Scavullo began working for a studio that produced fashion catalogs. He soon moved to Vogue. Scavullo spent three years as Horst P. Horst's assistant, studying Horst's techniques. In 1948, he created a cover for Seventeen that won him a contract with the magazine. Scavullo soon opened his own studio in Manhattan. Good Housekeeping cover from July 1967. Cover photo of Alana Collins (later Alana Stewart) by Scavullo. In 1969, Scavullo painted singer Janis Joplin, with a cigarette in her hand, a picture exhibited at the Amon Carter Museum in Fort Worth, Texas. The museum poster refers to Joplin, who died in 1970, as having a "free-spirited fervor of the counterculture revolution."
Some of Scavullo's more controversial work included a Cosmospolitan centerfold of a nude Burt Reynolds, and photographs of a young Brooke Shields that some considered overly sexual. He also befriended a young teenager from Philadelphia, future supermodel Gia Carangi, whose career he was largely responsible for launching.[citation needed] Later, when Carangi's heroin addiction made it impossible for her to find work, Scavullo continued to employ her and support her until her eventual death from complications relating to AIDS.
Scavullo also created shots for various movie posters, album covers and Broadway shows, including one for A Star is Born (featuring Barbra Streisand and Kris Kristofferson), Judy Collins' Hard Times for Lovers, a portrait of Julie Andrews for Blake Edwards' Victor Victoria...
