About This Work
Wenda Parkinson wears a grey gabardine dress by Dorville while at George Airfield in Nairobi, Kenya as part of a British Vogue shoot in May of 1951. The model, who stands next to an Hermes aeroplane, would go on to marry photographer Norman Parkinson later the same year.
About the Artist
Sir Norman Parkinson (1913–1990) was a British portrait and fashion photographer whose four-decade career transformed the aesthetic of 20th-century magazine work. Shooting for Harper's Bazaar, Vogue and Town & Country, he took models out of the studio into landscapes, streets and factories — humanising fashion photography and paving the way for the modern editorial image.
