“It’s about the body, it’s about the gesture, the feeling of being a woman. I can’t intellectualize what I do, and I don’t. A lot of it is purely instinctual"
~ Lillian Bassman
(1917-2012)

Photography even from its beginnings in the 19th Century often gave women fortunately a freedom to pursue a professional life beyond the roles of being a wife and mother. Lillian was no exception. Apart from being a great photographer she was a great and influential art director for “Junior Bazaar”. She was experimenting with her craft up till the day she passed away and was just the most wonderful and inspiring person to be around.
