André de Dienes, Around, 1959.
“Andre de Dienes (1913 - 1985) was a Hungarian photographer. Dienes was born in Torja, Kingdom of Hungary (present-day Turia, Romania), on December 18, 1913, and left home at 15 after the suicide of his mother.
Dienes travelled across Europe mostly on foot, until his arrival in Tunisia. In Tunisia he purchased his first camera, a 35mm Retina. Returning to Europe he arrived in Paris in 1933 to study art, and bought a Rolleiflex shortly after.
When not working as a fashion photographer Dienes travelled the USA photographing Native American culture, including the Apache, Hopi, and Navajo reservations and their inhabitants. Dissatisfied with his life as a fashion photographer in New York, Dienes moved to California in 1944, where he began to specialise in nudes and landscapes.” https://www.instagram.com/p/CHgHjdihwRv/?igshid=r7o6vrt6rczw
