As a photographer George Platt Lynes (New Jersey 1907- NYC 1955) was a brilliant craftsman and master of composition, whether it be in one of his many portraits of the famous and the legendary, or in his stunningly vivid documentations of the New York City Ballet. This skill and passion for his subjects led to enormous success in the 30s and 40s as he was published in the leading fashion magazines of the day such as Vogue and Harper's Bazaar. In collaboration with his male nude models he was able to transcend time and place, these images simultaneously glance back as a "homage" to Greek mythology and athleticism, and look forward to the modern, urban eroticism of Robert Mapplethorpe and Bruce Weber.
