Note:
Fred Herzog, arguably one of Vancouver's most beloved photographer, chronicled everyday street life of Vancouver in the 1950s and 60s. His intimate knowledge of Vancouver was recorded through the lens of his camera to create iconic images of the city in the mid century.
In 2010, Herzog received a Honorary Doctorate from Emily Carr University of Art + Design, and in 2014 he received the Audain Award for Lifetime Achievement in the Visual Arts.
This photograph was used as the cover for Canadian band Prism's "Young Restless" album
