Herbert List was a German photographer renowned for his contributions to modern photography and contemporary fashion. Born in Hamburg, List began his career in the 1930s, working with prominent magazines such as Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar, Life, and Magnum Photos. He became known for his evocative black-and-white photographs, which often included homoerotic nudes, still lifes, portraits, and architectural ruins set across Europe. During World War II, List was forced to return to Germany, but due to his Jewish ancestry, he was banned from publishing or working professionally.
