Grace and Style: Mark Shaw

I always loved this picture of Windsor Smith’s entryway- the pops of orange in the gown in the photograph with the boxes and bag and the sweet equestrian boots under the drop dead gorgeous brass console.

I found out the picture is by photographer Mark Shaw and when I found the Andrew Wilder Gallery collection of his prints I could not stop staring! His compositions of women, whether in their home, back stage, at work or posed outdoors are all spectacular. I don’t know how you would pic just one…
