ONLINE EXHIBITION
As the new Apple TV Show The Super Models aired earlier this month, discover some of the most iconic portraits of Naomi Campbell, Cindy Crawford, Linda Evangelista and Christy Turlington photographed by Arthur Elgort, Patrick Demarchelier, Terence Donovan and Bryan Adams in this online exhibition.
Through this selection of images, some of which are shown in the documentary, you will dive into some of the greatest fashion photographs of these incredible women who redefined what it means to be a model. Most of the photographs are shot in the late 80’s and 90’s, the era of the supermodel.

Unique Vintage Silver Gelatin Contact Print, 6 x 8 cm
These unique vintage contact prints, are small photographs made by laying the negative directly onto the surface of the light sensitive paper. Terence Donovan meticulously reviewed his contact sheets, indicating his selected frames by piercing them with a pen or marking them with a chinagraph pencil. He discarded the contact prints of the frames he did not want used, keeping only those that he felt good enough to print or publish. Many also tell the story of their history – they bear crop marks, printing instructions or layout comments. These small, original contact prints of single frames (some more than sixty years old) were kept with his negatives and remain in his archive. As well as being beautiful objects in their own right, they provide an important insight into Terence Donovan’s working process and give us vital information about which shots he felt were most successful from the many hundreds of thousands of photographs taken.
