This striking image by Erwin Blumenfeld appeared on the cover of Vogue’s May 1945 “Summer Beauty Issue,” at the moment when the world was emerging from the shadows of war. Blumenfeld, one of the most innovative fashion photographers of the twentieth century, was renowned for his bold use of color, surrealist influence, and ability to transform the conventions of magazine photography into works of fine art. The composition embodies his signature style—elegant, modern, and slightly experimental—capturing both the glamour and optimism of a new era. Today, this cover is celebrated not only as a milestone in fashion publishing, but also as a timeless example of Blumenfeld’s enduring artistry.
