As early as the 1940s the late Lillian Bassman’s images broke boundaries, captivated the fashion world and made her a truly creative force of the 20th and 21st Centuries. Using unconventional techniques in the darkroom to create unique, mysterious and moody photographs predominantly for Harper’s Bazaar and the major French couture houses in the 40s and 50s, Lillian Bassman was a woman ahead of her time. The Peninsula magazine takes an exclusive look into the archive of this extraordinary photographer.
