Carousel Research Reprinted with permission of Joanna T. Steichen, Carousel Research.
Publishing regularly in Vogue and Vanity Fair for fifteen years, Steichen introduced the notion of modernism to a cosmopolitan audience interested in fashionably adorning itself. His product shots and his celebrity portraits of Charles Chaplin, Greta Garbo, and Gloria Swanson, among others, bring out the personality of each product or subject within the confines of a precisely designed and lit set.
