Through Atomic Indy, a blog out of Indianapolis, we received word that famed photographer and modernist icon Julius Shulman has passed at the age of 98.
Shulman got started with Richard Neutra in 1936 as a photographer and ended up as the preeminent photographer for the entire modernist movement. He had a sense of composition, drama and style that few have. His photo of the Case Study House #22 has been called the greatest architectural photograph of the 20th century.
