"Louise Dahl-Wolfe, 38 West 57th St. New York City" stamped on verso
Born in San Francisco, Louise Dahl-Wolfe spent six years at her native city's Institute of Art studying painting, figure drawing, anatomy, and design. Inspired by the work of a friend, Dahl began experimenting with a camera at 26. By 1929 she had established herself as a professional photographer and married the American sculptor Meyer (Mike) Wolfe, who often constructed the backgrounds for her photo shoots.
As a staff photographer for Harper's Bazaar from 1936 through 1958, Dahl-Wolfe introduced a witty, relaxed, and natural aspect to fashion photography and, in the process, helped "define the post-war look of American women." She also made memorable portrait photographs of leading figures from politics and the arts, "discovered" a teenage Lauren Bacall, and was a pioneer in the technique of color photography.
