In his early years, Lindbergh studied at the Berlin Academy of Fine Arts and later, inspired by his idol, Vincent Van Gogh, moved to Arles. He was born in Lezno, Poland, and was raised in Duisburg, a city in western Germany. Peter Lindbergh, who, with an illustrious career spanning over four decades, is considered one of the most influential photographers in fashion, passed away in 2019 at the age of 74. As a result, Lindbergh’s photographs created the original “supermodels,” who reigned as royalty in the decade’s visual culture. Presenting their arresting and forthright beauty in intimate, unretouched pictures, they captured the aura of the multicultural and alternative 1990’s. Embracing the “au naturale” and countercultural energy of the 90’s while removing the artifice of previous fashion photography norms, Lindbergh’s photographs mythologized these models as effortless and eternal rebels within the fashion industry.

A new upcoming project is an advert video shoot for Mariah Carey’s new fragrance, "M". He also photographed Céline Dion for her perfume ad.
