Fashion photographer, Peter Lindbergh, whose trademark was the dramatic black and white portrait, has died at the age of 74.
The German photographer passed away on Tuesday, September 3rd and his official Instagram account announced his death saying his passing has left a "big void" in the industry.
Lindbergh studied at Berlin's Academy of Fine Arts in the 1960s. He assisted German photographer Hans Lux for two years before opening his own studio in 1973. He moved to Paris in 1978 to pursue his career, his website says. The photographer's work appeared in magazines such as Vogue, Vanity Fair, Harper's Bazaar and The New Yorker.
In an emotional tribute to the late photographer, actress Charlize Theron tweeted, 'my heart is broken. Peter Lindbergh was a genius and an absolute master of his craft. Beyond that, what made him truly one of a kind was his consistent kindness, warmth, and incredible sense of humor. One of the best human beings I have ever met. I will never forget you my friend'.
