I really like Horst P. Horst's website http://www.horstphorst.com/. I like the simplicity of the website how it has one of his most famous photographs as the homepage image 'The Corset'. I like how the website is broken up in to categories so for a person like me who would most likely use this website for research it helps to find the resources quickly. I also like that when going into the categories for example the selected works it is broken down again into genres. I like this as sometimes I don't want to look at everything at once as its harder to take in but when its separated I can look at the images fully and take note of the genre and remember where it was on the website, when clicking onto an image the title of the image and when it was taken is along side the photograph which I think is a good extra to have as many websites do not have this feature. I like the background being white as it adds to a simple but elegant design which matched the style of Hort P. Horst' works.
I think that this website is sleek and compliments the artist and his work. I think tat if this was created in a more complex method or just shown as a mass body of works without categorising would make this website difficult to view and find the relevant things I would want. I think this website is great for representing Horst and his works.
