Studio Harcourt - Romy Schneider, 1960. Studio Hartcourt

Studio Harcourt in Paris, formerly known as Studio Harcourt, is a photography studio founded in 1933 by Cosette Harcourt at number 11 on Christophe-Colomb Street in Paris. In 1934, the Lacroix brothers joined as press chiefs and Robert Ricci, son of Nina Ricci. This studio is well known for its black-and-white photographs of film stars and celebrities. Owning a photograph taken in the studio was considered a standard for the French upper middle class. Cosette Harcourt began to specialize in photographs of film stars and French culture with glamour and in black and white. Photos were taken with a luminous and distinctive style, very recognizable. This typical Harcourt style consisted of a close-up portrait, with its best lighting, where a halo of light and shadow was usually created on a background ranging from gray to black. The subject’s attitude was personal, often with a slight smile. Harcourt appears very prominently in each photograph. Details: Title: Romy Schneider, 1960.
