AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This concerns an iconic Dutch advertisement photograph from the early 1990s. It is an advertisement photo by photographer Paul Huf Jr. for Adèle in Casablanca (Adèle Bloemendaal).

Photographer: Paul Huf Paul Huf (1924 - 2002)
Size: 34 x 24 cm
Original: the original photo was released in 1990; this splendid edition is from 1996.
Condition: Very good
Technique: C-print / digital print
Authentic: Yes, see the back stamp by the Groninger Museum
Edition: This photo was issued by the Groninger Museum in 1996, around which Paul Huf (and Dick Bruna) organized an exhibition called 'The Smell of Success'.

"The Smell of Success" was a special, grandly staged exhibition at the Groninger Museum in 1996 (from June 29 to September 1). The exhibition and the accompanying publications centered on the unique combination of two Dutch icons: photographer Paul Huf and designer/illustrator Dick Bruna. The exhibition showcased the cross-pollination between Paul Huf’s commercial/modern photography and Dick Bruna’s minimalist graphic design (best known for Miffy). Both had left a huge imprint on Dutch visual culture in the previous decades (as Huf did with his iconic record sleeves, Grolsch campaigns, Philips, KLM, Magriet, Avenue, King Peppermint and Playboy).

Historical & Artistic Context
- Photographer: Photographed by the legendary Dutch photographer Paul Huf Jr.
- Client: Created as an advertising and fashion photograph for the innovative magazine Romance.
- People in the photo: The two men in the composition are the famous Dutch choreographer and dancer Hans van Manen and dancer Gérard le Maître. Their dynamic ballet and dance poses break with the traditional, static fashion pose of the time. The four posing women are the then-known models Margereth, Vicka, Evelyn and Rita.

Here are 20 important international and Dutch examples, influences and related artists of Paul Huf: Irving Penn, Richard Avedon, Edward Steichen, Cecil Beaton, Horst P. Horst, George Hoyningen-Huene, Louise Dahl-Wolfe, Man Ray, Willy Maywald, Henri Cartier-Bresson, Jacques Henri Lartigue, Ad Windig, Maria Austria, Carel Willink, Helmut Newton, Guy Bourdin, David Bailey, Bert Stern, Lord Snowdon (Antony Armstrong-Jones), Norman Parkinson
