Period
Karsh of Ottawa studio operated 1932- 1992.
Canada
Part of a large collection of photographic equipment used by Yousuf Karsh, Canada's internationally honoured portrait photographer. From 1932 to 1992, Mr. Karsh operated from his principle studio in Ottawa, photographing heads of state, religious leaders, and those prominent in business, the arts and entertainment. Karsh papers are in NAC.
Function
Used to support accessory equipment to shield photographic subjects from glare and heat of lights.
Technical
These background units were used by Karsh as neutral fields in his standard set-up. The backgrounds (.3-.4) themselves were probably designed and constructed by Karsh/his assistants. The largest was placed directly behind the subject, the smaller off to one side. A small light was placed between the two, or directly behind the subject, to illuminate the background, and separate it from subject
