About the Item

Black and White Photograph by Wouter Deruytter, Belgium, 2005. Photographer Deruytter opens doors to worlds rarely seen, guided by a spirit of adventure he likens to Tintin. His work spans from New York’s drag scene to the secluded lives of oil sheiks, always balancing the extreme with the intimate. In this striking New York image, a massive billboard of an Aprey watch looms over passing pedestrians, contrasting private allure with public life. His photographs suggest that people can create lives apart, personal and timeless. Silver Gelatin Print, Wood Frame. 16"H x 20"W

1934 Remie Lohse Photograph for Vogue
By Remie Lohse
Located in New York, NY
Remie Lohse was born in Puerto Rico, studied painting in Denmark, and settled in New York in 1928, where he became a professional photographer. In the 1930s he was a freelancer who specialized in advertising and magazine features, and shot covers for Vogue. If he often focused on the high life, seen in this couple stepping out on the town, he also shot humble subjects. He was more interested in his art than a particular milieu, and many of his photographs are little masterpieces. His contemporary Gilbert Seldes, the noted Vanity Fair media critic and “public intellectual” (not to mention father of actress Marian Seldes), featured Lohse in his 1934 book 'This is New York, The First Modern Photographic Book of New York.' In 1939 Lohse came out with his own book titled 'The Miniature Camera in Professional Hands.' Our photograph was one of three shot by Lohse for a 1934 Vogue article titled “High Spots and Low Music." If the photograph (image size 4 1/4" x 6") show a couple making the nocturnal rounds of Manhattan restaurants, bars, and jazz clubs, the story itself also covers the daytime meeting places of the ladies who lunch. The twist is that Lohse’s model was the author herself, Elena Mumm Thornton, and her husband James Worth...
