IRINA


I have a lot of favorites, but Irina Ionesco is really it for me as her pictures capture the imagery that I find most beautiful. Her parents were supposedly circus performers and gypsies from Romania. Irina lived there for most of her childhood until they moved to Paris. She was a painter before she discovered photography and took quite a few controversial pictures of her young daughter - one of which I posted above.
