Condé Nast’s
iconic magazines—from Vogue and Vanity Fair to Gourmet and Golf Digest — are known not only for the
excellence of their editorial content but also for the high quality of their
visual images.
With
dramatic fashion photography by Bert Stern and John Rawlings, among others, and
memorable portraits by artists such as Horst P. Horst and Edward Steichen, Condé
Nast has consistently set itself apart during the past century by featuring the
work of world-class photographers.
This valuable
archive containing more than 100 years’ worth of photographs and illustrations
is being made available to the public. These include Vanity Fair photographs
once on exhibition in London’s National Portrait Gallery as well as the classic
black-and-white work of Edward Steichen that filled the pages of Condé Nast
publications. All these images can hang in your home or be shared as gifts.
Each print
is reproduced using state-of-the-art digital equipment. The Hahnemuehle
pearl printing paper is a fiber-based surface developed in the tradition of the
Silver Gelatin prints, the original gold standard of archival photographic
reproduction. The paper’s weight of 285 grams per square meter reduces
rolling and curling, and its UV-resistant pigmented inks can last for more than
100 years.
The Larson-Juhl hardwood frames—available in several sizes—include
archival 8-ply, acid-free matting; ultraviolet-filtering Plexiglas; and hanging
hardware. Each image is accompanied by an authentication letter from our archivist
and a provenance label detailing the image, magazine, and artist.
We hope you
enjoy your selection. Come back and shop often. We will continue to add new and
unique images from our archive.
