Ilse Bing's move from her birth city Frankfurt to the avant-garde and surrealist scene in Paris marked the start of the most notable period of her career. She produced images in the fields of photojournalism, architectural photography, advertising and fashion, and her work was published in magazines such as Le Monde Illustrée, Harper's Bazaar and Vogue. In 1931, Bing's work was exhibited in both France and Germany. Her rapid success as a photographer, and her position as the only professional in Paris to use an advanced Leica camera, earned her the title "Queen of the Leica", coined by the critic and photographer Emmanuel Sougez, whom she met in 1931. – Traces of previous mounting on mount verso, otherwise a rich tonal print in excellent condition.
