Meet Madame D’Ora, The Era-Defining Fashion Photographer Lost To History

, it’s reckoned that the Austrian-Jewish image maker produced a staggering 200,000 pictures. As the primary photographer for– the rarefied fashion industry magazine which catalogued the Paris collections for buyers, editors and stylish insiders – she shot every couture look for every house, every season.

It’s a fundamental question at a moment when the work of women artists is finally being spotlighted; one that finds its reply in a major new retrospective,, on display at the Neue Galerie in New York. It’s the first exhibition to give D’Ora’s pictures of concentration camps and abattoirs, actors and aristocrats, equal billing. It’s precisely these multiple layers of her work, suggests the show’s curator Dr Monika Faber, that make her such a captivating figure of 20th-century photography.
