His father, Herb Ritts Sr. Was a businessman, while his mother, Shirley Ritts, was an interior designer. He moved to the East Coast to attend Bard College in New York, where he majored in economics and art history, graduating in 1975… Between 1980s and 1990s, Herb Ritts photographed many renowned personalities from various fields like politics, acting, music and etc. These celebrities included Michael Jackson, Mariah Carey, Britney Spears, Diana Ross, Elizabeth Taylor, Ronald Reagan, Belinda Carlisle, Cher, Brad Pitt, Francesco Clemente, Nicole Kidman, Elton John, Michelle Pfeiffer, Stephen Hawking, Dalai Lama, Mel Gibson, Edward Norton, Elton John, Antonio Banderas, Jack Nicholson, David Bowie, Cindy Crawford, Tina Turner, Mikhail Gorbachev, Tom Cruise, George Clooney, and Annette Bening. He also took several nude and fashion photographs of supermodel Cindy Crawford… In his life and work, Herb Ritts was drawn to clean lines and strong forms. This graphic simplicity allowed his images to be read and felt instantaneously. His work often challenged conventional notions of gender or race. Social history and fantasy were both captured and created by his memorable photographs of noted individuals in film, fashion, music, politics, and society… His work has been exhibited in numerous museums, such as the Fondation Cartier Pour L’Art Contemporain in Paris, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, and the Annenberg Space for Photography in Los Angeles, CA, the National Portrait Gallery and the Hayward Gallery in London, and PS1 Contemporary Art Center, the Solomon R.

A two-color halftone produced by overprinting two halftone screens made from the same photograph (usually a black-and-white photograph), as a means of generating a monochromatic image with a full range of tonal gradations. In the creation of a duotone, two halftone plates are made, one for black, which picks up the highlight and shadow regions, and one for middle tones, either other shades of black, or another color. When two non-black colors are used in the production of a duotone, it is often called a duochrome. Duotones are often made to increase detail in the black regions of an image, or as a special effect… Offset lithography involves printing the image onto an intermediate surface before the final sheet. The process is’offset’ because the plate does not come in direct contact with the paper, which preserves the quality of the plate. With offset lithography, the image is reversed twice, and appears on the final sheet the same way round as on the stone or plate… EXTRA FINE COLLECTOR CONDITION PRINT with BRAND NEW, professionally dry-mounted MOUNT AND MAT with archival, museum grade, 12.0 ins wide x 14.0 ins high mount board.
