Richard Avedon @ the Peabody Essex..



I've always admired the work of photographer Richard Avedon so I was thrilled to find out that his images of the Kennedy Family are on view at the Peabody Essex Museum. {which is right down the street from my house}
Here's a peek at some of his work..

Richards photos mark a generation & although the world has had amazing photographers, he is one of a kind. How terrific to be able to walk down the street & view this exhibit.

Did he not capture each of those individuals so perfectly?

I love these throw-back images. The woman with the elephants is genius and oh-so beautiful!
