The Jean Jean-ie: A never-before-seen photo of Shrimpton from 1964
If you’ve had your fill of rare Marilyn Monroe pictures, maybe it’s time for some vintage images of The Shrimp?
Photographer Ronald Falloon is known for his work in the ‘60s shooting the likes of Twiggy and Jean Shrimpton—and though much of his work appeared in books and magazines, there are a few shots of the latter that never saw the light of day—until now.
Luxury online retailer Vintage Seekers is offering a limited run (25 each) of the digital C-type prints.
The photos, 1964 test shots for the first-ever Sunday Telegraph supplement in the Daily Telegraph, show the style icon wearing Falloon’s denim shirt (and plenty of mascara!) as she poses coyly in front of an era-appropriate rug.
The prints are available now for £1,200—or $1,834 at current exchange rates—a pop.
