The last image in today's George Platt Lynes series is from the same photo shoot as a similar
picture I posted five years ago. This one has the model tilted more to the side.
There's a hint of Goya's Colossus in it, without the threatening mood. But man as larger than the landscape, larger than life. IMHO. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Colossus_(painting)#/media/File%3AEl_coloso.jpg
Do you suppose this could be Buddy McCarthy? This model seems a little beefier than the typical Lynes model. I have not seen this one before, but I like the angles!
You make a very good point. I need to try to find a date for this one and see if it matches the known span when Mr. McCarthy was modeling for Mr. Lynes.

After looking at your link, I see what you mean.

ReplyDeleteI love this photo and others from the same shoot. Thanks Jerry for reminding me I planned to frame them. I need to get around to that!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely worth framing!
