Who is renee perle

I long for the days when airbrushing, photoshop and elective cosmetic surgery did not exist. These subtle yet sexually charged moments between photographer and model could be deemed obscene if not for the loving intimacy, sadly, this is something we will never likely see again.

I was aware of the photographer but not the model, thank you for the introduction. I would just like to mention the recent passing of the artist Louise Bourgeois which has not received much notice in the press.

I think you would have liked her. X David. I love these photos and her style, all the bangles etc. It has to be my favourite era of style xx. Thank you very much for sharing these beautiful pictures! By the way, I have had the same Henri Cartier-Bresson picture on my wall as you have on the right side of the blog since 14 years. What an incredible beauty! Such style -- I love those massive sailor's pants -- they are so haute-couture; difficult to wear, I'm sure, unless you had her body and were cavorting around the Cap d'Antibes.

Also, the marcelled hair, the darkened bee-stung lips, the tank tops, the bangles -- it's too much! I would have loved to have sat next to her at a twilight alfresco dinner in the South of France and just been a silent observer as the night unfolded: I'm sure there was never a dull moment!

I think this might be the start of a new obsession. Dear Dash, I was sure I'd left a comment here. I loved this post. Renee was beautiful. It is by far my favourite era xx. What brilliant quotes and incredible photos. Renee also painted, and a large number of her quaint and naive self-portraits are seen in some Lartigue photos.

They do not show much mastery of artistic technique, but they have a strange fascination, perhaps because they show something approaching a manic-compulsion by Renee to paint her own face on canvas over and over, almost without end. The Romanian Foundation has made many efforts to find one of these for its collection, as a specimen, but so far with no success.

We have been in touch with Renee's step-daughter, who has an oil portrait of her step-mother, but everything else which had been carefully preserved by Renee was dispersed in and in two famous Paris sales by Tajan. Renee also worked as a fashion model.
