Sea of Hats
O mare de palarii
43. Sea of Hats: Photo by Margaret Bourke-White, 1930
The legendary – and legendarily intrepid -- Margaret Bourke-White shot the magazine’s first cover. (She was also the first Western photographer allowed into the U.S.S.R, the first accredited woman photographer in WWII, and the first to fly on a combat mission.) Bourke-White loved the overhead vantage point and, indeed, some of her most famous pictures were taken from airplanes. Here, she looks down on the frantic yet seemingly choreographed buzz of men milling about on 36th St. between 8th and 9th Avenues in the heart of New York City's Garment District.
O mare de palarii: Fotografie realizata de Margaret Bourke-White, 1930
Bine cunoscuta - si cu legendara cutezanta - fotografie facuta de Margaret Bourke-White a fost asezata pe prima coperta a revistei LIFE. (Artista a fost primul fotograf din Vest care i-a fost ingaduit sa intre in U.R.S.S, a fost prima femeie acreditata ca fotograf in Al doilea razboi mondial si prima care a zburat intr-o misiune de lupta.)
Margaret Bourke-White i-au placut peisajele facute de la inaltime si, intr-adevar, unele din cele mai celebre fotografii ale ei au fost facute din avion. In acest caz, aici ea surprinde, uitandu-se in jos, vanzoleala frenetica insa aparent urmand o anumita coregrafie, a furnicarului de oameni de pe strada 36, intre bulevardul 8 si 9 din inima Districtului Garment din orasul New York.
