Product description
In the winter of 1971, the slopes of the Swiss Alps became the backdrop for one of the most celebrated moments in celebrity sports photography. This print captures the cinema star in full motion, navigating the powder while wearing a distinctive chunky knit scarf and ribbed winter attire.
About Brigitte Bardot
Brigitte Bardot became an icon of 1950s and 1960s French cinema and style. Many photographers still choose black and white to emphasise light, shape and mood over colour. The original image dates from 1971. Vintage photographs carry the grain, tone and atmosphere of their time.
Styling this Brigitte Bardot photograph
Black-and-white tones give this Brigitte Bardot photograph a moody character that holds a room. The tall format of “Skiing in Switzerland” suits narrow walls, hallways and the space beside a doorway, and it is a natural fit for a home office; 18×24″ is a versatile middle size. The monochrome tones of “Skiing in Switzerland” sit happily with warm or cool interiors alike; try a slim black frame with a generous white mat. “Skiing in Switzerland” also anchors a gallery wall well; surround it with smaller black-and-white pieces at even 2–3 inch gaps.
