Description
PHILIPPE HALSMAN (1906–1979) | Edward Steichen Jumping, New York 1959 | Vintage silver print, double-weight semi-matte paper, in fine condition 24,8 x 20,3 cm Photographer’s stamp, publication/archive stamps and annotations, newspaper clip on the reverse LITERATURE Philippe Halsman’s Jump Book, New York: Simon & Schuster, 1959, p. 11; Sam Stourdzé / Anne Lacoste, Philippe Halsman. Astonish Me!, Lausanne 2014, p. 204. “Could I take a little run?” Steichen asked before he leaped. Photographer Halsman put a small bit of paper at the spot where he wanted Steichen to leap. Steichen ran and jumped three times in succession, Halsman catching the peak of each leap. Then Steichen took off his coat, rolled up his sleeves, and made one more joyful jump. (Caption from the newspaper clip on the reverse) „Könnte ich einen kleinen Anlauf nehmen?“ fragte Steichen, bevor er sprang. Der Fotograf Halsman legte ein kleines Stück Papier an die Stelle, an der Steichen springen sollte. Steichen rannte und sprang drei Mal hintereinander, wobei Halsman jeden Sprung festhielt. Dann zog Steichen seinen Mantel aus, krempelte die Ärmel hoch und machte noch einen letzten, freudigen Sprung. (Text am Zeitungsausschnitt auf der Rückseite)
