GERMAINE KRULL 1897-1985
The Demeria model wearing jewelry created by Raymond Templier, platinum necklace, diamonds and black lacquer, ring and bracelets, 1929. Photograph. Vintage silver print mounted on card, signed in pencil under the image. Image: 15.8 x 22.3 cm; mount: 39 x 29 cm Krull moved to Paris in 1926. Already well known, she was quickly introduced to the artistic world and more particularly to the circle of Sonia and Robert Delaunay. They introduced her to fashion designers and jewelers such as Cartier, Mauboussin, Line Vautrin and Raymond Templier, for whom she took fashion photographs in her studio on the Place de la Madeleine. Her research led her to experiment with plunging, counter-plunging and oblique angles of view. Krull thus participated in the implementation of the New Vision in Europe. Nicknamed "the sculptor of jewelry", Raymond Templier, son and grandson of Parisian jewelers, (1891-1968) is one of the great creators of the Art Deco period with his pure forms, his geometric lines, the use of new materials, such as silver lacquered with black.
