Irving Penn, dies at 92

As Irving Penn once poignantly said - 


"A good photograph is one that communicates a fact, touches the heart, leaves the viewer a changed person for having seen it.  It is, in a word, effective." 




Andy Grundberg wrote about Irving Penn's clarity of vision and prolific career in his obituary for the New York Times here
