Cash's Portrait of Audrey Hepburn

Cash's portrait of Audrey Hepburn is divided into "Audrey Hepburn Behind the Window". This was shot by Richard Avedon for her.

Audrey Hepburn said that because this photo is fragile enough, it is true enough.

Richard Avedon is a famous fashion photographer, or a famous portrait photographer. For him, fashion photography is a livelihood, and portrait photography is the pursuit.

And his pursuit of portrait photography is to shoot people, and he must express a true opinion.

in recent years, I have often heard emotional photography. But young people, emotional photography is not an affectation of a character in the picture. But a true expression of the characters from the inside out.

We are used to seeing Audrey Hepburn's strange appearance. Just imagine, will she be like that forever? Or is she really like that?

So when we see Audrey Hepburn on the other side, we see her behind the rain-washed window, looking forward-this is his favorite look to guide the photographer, and her eyes are full of melancholy.

Audrey Hepburn has almost no shadow on her face, and her expression is more direct. This is also a common expression used by Richard Avedon. This will make people look more real.

Follow-up

Among his many photos, there are many stories. But one of them is very interesting.

This photo was taken by the Duke and Duchess of Windsor. When taking this photo, in order to achieve the real emotional effect, Avidon told the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, who love dogs, a story he had just made up-seeing a puppy run over by a car.

So I photographed the real emotional expression, but it was different from the Duke and Duchess of Windsor that people usually saw. You know, they usually seem to wear masks.
