When I began following fashion blogs a few years ago, the above image of Grace Kelly, taken by photographer Tom Palumbo (1921-2008), was one of the first images I saved as inspiration.
Palumbo's talent was discovered when a photography editor at MOMA saw his photo of a stable in Athens, Georgia. He went on to work for Harper's Bazaar and Vogue, where he captured the essence and spirit of fashion in the fifties and sixties.
I love my personal connection to Palumbo's work, having been blessed to live in Athens, Georgia myself. I find his work truly beautiful; his photographs have me longing to have been born in a different generation.
