Regarded as a ‘still life’ by established fashion photographer Walter Pfeiffer, this undeniably seductive image depicts contrasting heels – a black Christian Louboutin and a white Giuseppe Zanotti – and is imbued with his signature blend of eroticism and wit. Pfeiffer’s retrospective exhibition Walter Pfeiffer: In Love with Beauty, which chronicled his four-decade career, opened in 2008 at Fotomuseum Winterthur, and in the same year, the Swiss Confederation awarded him the Grand Prix Design. His works are held in various collections, including Fotomuseum Winterthur, Kunsthaus Zürich, and the Sir Elton John Collection, Atlanta/London.
