Edmond Kiraz
Kiraz is an Armenian artist, born in Cairo, resides in Paris, France.
Kiraz’s illustration of Parisiennes are somehow witty, sexy, sensual and adorable, not your typical stern faced Coco Chanel.
Excerpt from http://www.parisdailyphoto.com/
“16 mars 2009 Les Parisiennes (de Kiraz) !
“ You remember this photo of "Les Parisiennes"?
Well, here is another kind of Parisiennes, that most French know and appreciate. They were created by Edmond Kirazian (better known as Kiraz) in 1959, an artist of Armenian origins who emigrated to France right after WWII. He created them for a French magazine called "Jour de France" that targeted the typical middle class French housewife of the 60's.
Pretty wise in the beginning, they quickly adopted the less strict moral rules of the 70's, especially through fashion (ie the miniskirt they are wearing in this photo!) and language. I also discovered they appear(ed) in Playboy Magazine in a less dressed version! I took this photo at Le Musée Carnavalet where there was a exhibition dedicated to them. “
