Trained as an artist, Irving Penn began photographing for "Vogue" in the 1940s--and went on to become one of the most versatile and accomplished image-makers of the last 50 years. His photographs have become documents of the century, from his portraits of native peoples to his gravity defying still lifes of Clinque cosmetics. This landmark retrospective showcases 90 of Penn's standout images.
