Erwin Blumenfeld
1897 - 1969
Erwin Blumenfeld began taking photographs when he was eleven, before his professional debut with a 1936 exhibition in Paris. He later published collages mocking Adolf Hitler, and was interned in a concentration camp during German occupation. Blumenfeld emigrated to the USA in 1941, where his post-war career flourished, with photographs appearing in Harpers Bazaar and Vogue, and a reputation as the highest paid freelance photographer in New York.
Despite his commercial success, Erwin preferred to be known as an amateur photographer, so that he could have the freedom to choose his subjects. He was most at home capturing images that attracted him: including landscapes, sculpture and architecture, but – above all – women.
Blumenfeld’s careful manipulation of veil or shadow to complement his subjects reflects his passion for the female form, producing nudes which testify to the photographer’s declaration: ‘How seriously I take beauty!’
Erwin Blumenfeld died in Rome in 1969.
