House & Garden - March 1947 Poster Print by André Kertész at the Condé Nast Collection

(Hungarian, 1894-1985) As one of the first to see the potential in using a small, hand-held camera, Kertész, born Andor Kertész in Hungary, helped define modern photojournalism. His first photos were published while he was in the Austro-Hungarian army during World War I. His work, often subtle, is taken from unorthodox angles and reveals unexpected details, ephemeral moments, and whimsical beauty. In 1937, Kertész came to New York, where he began working for a number of publications, including Vogue. Throughout the 1950s, he worked continuously for Condé Nast, mainly photographing interiors for House & Garden. He has been the subject of numerous exhibitions, including a 1964 show at MoMA New York, and received a number of awards, including the New York City Mayor's Award in 1977 and the gold medal at the Venice Biennale in 1963.

Organization is key in this household. André Kertész photographed this closet full of stylist hats for the March 1947 House & Garden.

The premium giclée print is produced on thick (310 gsm), textured watercolor paper made from alpha cellulous wood pulp that is acid free. It shares the same vivid colors, accuracy, and exceptional resolution that make giclée prints the standard for museums and galleries around the world.

The premium photographic print is digitally printed on high-gloss premium photographic paper. The result is a unique silver pearlescent finish with stunning visual impact and depth, suitable for museum or gallery display.

The stretched canvas print is the result of sophisticated digital printing technology in which the image is printed directly onto an artist-grade, 100% cotton canvas. The canvas is then expertly stretched around 1.5" wooden bars and carefully finished with hand-painted edges. An acrylic coating protects the stunning giclée print from dust, moisture and fading. (Canvas may not be available for all prints.)
