Count Theodor Zichy, a Hungarian aristocrat, became a distinguished figure in mid-20th-century photography, particularly in fashion and portraiture. Starting his career in the 1930s, Zichy quickly gained acclaim for his distinct style that blended elements of glamour and sensuality. His fascination with photographing women’s legs, often adorned with luxurious stockings or jewelry, became a hallmark of his work, emphasizing the aesthetic allure and subtle eroticism that defined his approach to fashion photography. – Corners bumped, some handling creases and light surface irregularities, otherwise in good condition.
