A couple of early shots of Pat Davis sent over by Oxxbridge Galleries, potentially taken by Harrison Marks, as those curtains look familiar.
A Brush with Pat Davis
Pat Davis by Harrison Marks, posing on the loft set as she sits on a crate and toys with an artist’s paint brush! Although images of Pat taken by GHM appear throughout several editions of Kamera, including No.19 and No.20 (1958/59), then later editions. Pat only posed for Harrison Marks on one occasion during the Winter of 1958/59, probably not long before shots similar to the one above appeared in Kamera No.19.
A fabulous pose from Pat and her legs seems to be oiled, but the rest of her doesn’t, although I have seen many shots of her covered in oil as well :)
Pat Davis: A Heavenly View (1959)
Pat Davis from Kamera No.19 P29 (1959) posing in the studio sat on a stool, with the sky background added in during processing. GHM did this on many of his shots, but it predominately seemed to be a sky/beach background, such as in this example of Sylvana Manto.
