Julius Shulman (Brooklyn, October 10, 1910 - Los Angeles,
July 15, 2009) was an American architectural photographer best
known for his photograph Case Study House #22, Los Angeles, 1960,
Pierre Koenig, Architect. Some of his architectural photographs,
like the iconic shots of Frank Lloyd Wright's or Pierre Koenig's
remarkable structures, have been published countless times. The
brilliance of buildings like those by Charles Eames, as well as
those of his close friend, Richard Neutra, was first brought to
light by Shulman's photography. The clarity of his work demanded
that architectural photography had to be considered as an
independent art form.

business partner Juergen Nogai.us Shulman and Juergen Nogai have
