Fred Lyon: San Francisco’s Brassai

Posted on October 11, 2016 by webdev

Friend John turns my attention to a recent showing of some 1940s and 1950s work of San Francisco legend Fred Lyon, documenting his home town in the 1940s and 1950s.   And here is one of my favorites from Lyon:

As Napoleon?  Came across this image’s previously-undiscovered negative last night.  Jonathan was a friend and artist-in-residence at a community arts organization I worked with in the 70s and 80s.
