Frank Horvat
Frank Horvat initially exchanged his stamp collection for a 35mm Retinamat camera. He first studied drawing at the Accademia di Brera (Milan) and then worked in an advertising agency. In 1949, he started to work as a freelance photographer for different magazines. From 1957, he became famous in the world of fashion (Elle, Glamour, Vogue…) in Paris.
“This composition with an animal is the result of a suggestion by Baron Eric de Rothschild to which the artist responded with gusto.”
In 1989, he experimented with digital imaging, a method used for this greetings card showing a fox in a plot of 100-year-old vines at Château Lafite Rothschild.
