Hommage a GRUAU II Photograph - Limited Edition of 9

Count Renato Zavagli Ricciardelli della Caminate,[2] professionally known as René Gruau (4 February 1909 – 31 March 2004)[1] was a fashion illustrator whose exaggerated portrayal of fashion design through painting has had a lasting effect on the fashion industry. Because of Gruau's inherent skills and creativity, he contributed to a change in the entire fashion industry through the new pictures that represented the already popular designs created by designers in the industry. We were inspired by the work of Gruau and planned on transferring and translating his style, use of color and shapes into a fashion photography series, planned all the details and executed by a talented team.
