Walter Bird (England, 1903 – 1969)

Walter Bird est un des photographes  Anglais les plus reconnus pour ses images exceptionnelles du nu féminin de ce qu’on nomme  « style art déco ». Bien qu’ayant  d’abord été formé en tant que peintre, il est venu rapidement à la photographie . C’est un véritable  maître de la lumière et de la composition, et ses  études de nus  étaient et sont toujours  bien connue à la fois pour le théâtralisme et la beauté artistique, sûrement dû en définitive à sa formation initiale la peinture.
Durant les années 1930 – 1940, Bird  avec  ses amis et collaborateurs John Everard  ( Article Ici ) et Horace Roye ( Article ici ) ont  produit  les meilleures photographies
du nu féminin de toute l’Angleterre.  Walter Bird est surtout connu pour son livre  Beauty’s Daughters, paru en 1938 pourtant,  mais il a aussi sorti Beauty’s Self , et …qui sont aussi de très belles études de nus.
Bird utilisait  le tirage Photo-encre  (ce qui est similaire à la  gravure ou  photogravure), tout comme ses contemporains, mais aussi les tirages  de gélatine argentique.
Les photographies aujourdhui présentées utilisent les deux techniques, (vous verrez la différence tout de suite)  , et proviennent de plusieurs livres, »
Beauty’s Daughters  » Ed ° John Long Limited, Londres, 1938 48 photogravures, »Beauty’s Self »   John Long Limited, of London,1940,  « Eves without Leaves »  par Walter Bird, Horace Roye et John Everard, Ed Arthur Person LTD 19415 Troisème ed) ,   (l’anecdote de ce livre, d’ une part  Ils se sont  regroupés afin de neâs  se faire concurrence, Mais il est ecrit dans l’avant-propos assez amusant rédigé par Reginald Arkell, rédacteur en chef du Magazine Only Men, que l’objectif du livre était de remonter le moral des troupes de combat de la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Il a été edité en taille de poche et republié  » fois en une années tant il a eu du succès. On y retrouve des clichés dejà paru dans des  livres individuels de chaque auteur, ( pour Bird c’est Beauty’s Daughters, Pour Roye  Les » Mermaids » c’est  et Everard « Life Line »  ) 

vous pouvez trouvez ces photos sur le net, mais sans les credits et les livres qont ils sont tirés, ou encore mieux , avec un tirage de négatifs rayés.
