Fashion photographer Peter Lindbergh, whose trademark was the dramatic black and white portrait, has died at 74.

The German photographer passed away on Tuesday, his official Instagram account said, leaving a "big void".

Born in 1944 in what is now Poland, Lindbergh worked with many fashion designers along with international magazines throughout his career.

Following his passing, let's look back at his stunning photoshoot with Madonna for Harper's Bazaar Magazine in 1994...

“I worked only once with Madonna. What really struck me was her very strong motivation. We were doing a tribute to Martha Graham, her admired dance teacher. I discovered a dancer with a very rare talent: Madonna was moving in a very soulful and personal way, very touching and very much herself. At the same time, there was a feeling of perfection to everything she was doing. I was very interested in capturing some of this extraordinary contradiction, which I found absolutely stunning. Those images are as modern today as they were in 1994.”

– Peter Lindbergh, 2016.

Cool shoot
I always appreciate Madonna with dark hair.

It's a brilliant photoshoot. I agree about dark hair Madonna, she is so striking.

I recognise that first photo in the second post - such a fierce, striking, androgynous look. Really great photoshoot. RIP Peter Lindbergh.

As a photoshoot it would have worked perfectly for the Madame X era I feel!

Yeah I agree! Especially as it's a tribute to Martha Graham.
