George Platt Lynes Nudes


I never get tired of reviewing the work of George Platt Lynes, an amazingly talented photographer, so today I will feature some more of his male nudes.  He took this self-portrait in 1950.

  1. Personnellement, je ne trouve pas ces photos très artistiques, mais c'est mon avis...

  2. I realize he had total control over his photos, including this one, but he looks old and wrinkled and tired. I wasn't expecting a glamour shot, but he could have done better.

    1. I agree. He was a heavy smoker, eventually dying of lung cancer, so I have to wonder if that had something to do with it.

  3. Portrait insolite, à la fois formel et étrange de Platt Lynes,
    sans doute dans ses dernières années. =
