Tamara Karsavina as the Firebird in “The Firebird,” London, platinum palladium
print, 11×9 inches, E.O. Hoppé Estate Collection.

November 16, 2024 – March 9, 2025

These stunning vintage platinum prints showcase more than Hoppé’s (1878-1972) mastering of portrait photography—they introduce us to an extraordinary group of women who broke boundaries in the first decades of the 20^th century. From the stage (acting and dancing) to the page (writers, composers) to the studio (visual artists), Hoppé’s photographs capture the intensity, individuality, intellect, and charisma of gifted trailblazers—like Margot Fonteyn, Käthe Kollwitz, Vita Sackville-West, Theda Bara, and more.
