Earl Kirk


There's a better than even chance that at one time there were more photos of Earl Kirk by Doug Juleff, aka Douglas of Detroit.  Many of Mr. Juleff's prints and negatives were destroyed by the Detroit police, so a large portion of his work was lost.  The lighting here is amazing.

  1. I was going to comment on the lighting. But the oil job does not detract from a fantastic shot, does it?

    Very fortunate to have posed for Douglas Juleff, the maestro of physique photography in Amérique.
    Juleff brought out the best in his modèles.
