Yousuf Karsh
Sunday 14 July 2002
No, I am not obsessed with big cameras, but I must mention that Yousuf Karsh died yesterday. He was the man who made that 1941 photograph of Winston Churchill looking like an affronted bulldog (he removed the Prime Minister’s cigar during the session). See this obituary in the New York Times, a few of his portraits on the Weston Gallery website, and a lot of them on the George Eastman House website.
