PICTURE THIS - RICHARD AVEDON

Groucho Marx

My favourite model ever, Suzy Parker

I've always LOVED this picture of Stephanie Seymour

Just a great shot.

I just felt like posting a few of my favourite pictures from my favourite photographer, Richard Avedon.

Enjoy.

    Supposedly, to get this sad-looking face of the former King Edward, who abdicated (remember 'The King's Speech') and his American wife and to suggest them living in sadness after essentially being disowned by the Royal Family, while ready with his camera Avedon told them that his driver ran over a dog on his way over to do this shoot. They *hated* this pic and tried to have it quashed.
