Andrea Johnson in Paris

Andrea Johnson photographed in Paris by Louise Dahl-Wolfe

Late-1940s. The setting is probably Le Jardin des Tuileries. During the 1940s, Carmel Snow, the editor of Harper’s Bazaar, used to send Dahl-Wolfe and, latterly, Richard Avedon to Paris to shoot the collections. It’s likely that this photo was taken during one of those visits. The print is stamped on the back “LOUISE DAHL-WOLFE 58 WEST 57th ST.” and comes from Andrea’s estate.
