Madame Yevonde Biography

One of the most famous female photographers of all time, Madame Yevonde's achievements in the realm of experimental photography began around 1930, with the discovery of the Vivex tri-color process.

The suffragette principles that encouraged her to explore issues concerning women's social and sexual roles, singled her out from other women photographers of the time and remained a motivating force throughout her career.
