ERTE

http://www.erte.com/

The first taste I had of fashion illustration was Erte. Renowned the world over, he really was the best place to start. Born in the late 1800’s in Russia, he moved to Paris to start a career in design. After receiving a commission from “Harpers Bazaar’ in 1915, Erte continued to rise to great prominence during the 20’s and 30’s as a prolific and intricate fashion designer, illustrator, set designer and costumer. Forgotten by the 40’s, it was an art dealers determination that got Erte noticed again in the late 60’s, to an even wider audience, with an even greater appreciation. His attention to detail is sublime. I think his designs are extremely creative, to the extent of attempting to create my own Erte inspired piece. I also find him to be a master in colour composition. His scenes are intense and stunning, and not without humour.
