About Brigitte Bardot

Brigitte Bardot became an icon of 1950s and 1960s French cinema and style. Mid-century glamour photography captures the style of the film stars of the 1940s, 1950s and 1960s. Black and white photography removes colour so shape, light and emotion lead. Many celebrated photographers printed their own work in the darkroom, treating each print as a finished artwork. Without colour, a photograph relies on contrast, texture and composition, which is why black and white feels timeless.
