Richard Avedon (1923–2004) was an influential American photographer renowned for his fashion photography and stark black-and-white portraits. Born and raised in New York City, Avedon’s interest in photography began at an early age, leading him to join the Young Men’s Hebrew Association (YMHA) camera club when he was twelve. Throughout his career, he worked for prominent publications like Harper’s Bazaar and Vogue, where he revolutionized fashion photography by capturing models in dynamic poses and natural settings, moving away from the static norms of the time. 
On February 10, 1965, Avedon photographed Bob Dylan in New York City, resulting in the iconic portrait titled “Bob Dylan, singer, New York, February 10, 1965.” This gelatin silver print measures 9 15/16 × 7 13/16 inches (25.3 × 19.8 cm) and is part of the Museum of Modern Art’s collection. The photograph captures Dylan during a pivotal moment in his career, reflecting the cultural zeitgeist of the 1960s. Avedon’s ability to encapsulate the essence of his subjects is evident in this portrait, which has become emblematic of Dylan’s persona during that era.
