Vogelmann was an advertising, press and fashion photographer before entering the film industry in the mid-1950s, where he worked as a still photographer.

In this context, Vogelmann created this collage, which was used for the cover of one of the first biographies of the star.

Deutsch:

Vintage-Silbergelatineabzug auf glänzendem "double weight" Agfa-Brovira-Papier, in gutem Zustand. Rückseitig Fotografen-Label mit typografischer Adresse in Wolfratshausen und handschriftliche Nummer "VO73" mit Bleistift. LITERATURE Gábor von Vaszary, Romy, Hamburg 1957, Cover.

Vogelmann war Werbe-, Presse- und Modefotograf, bevor er Mitte der 1950er Jahre zum Film kam, wo er als Standfotograf arbeitete. Als Romy Schneider mit der Sissi-Trilogie zunehmenden internationalen Erfolg erlangte, nahm er Studioporträts von ihr auf, die auch als Postkarten vertrieben wurden. In diesem Kontext schuf Vogelmann die Montage, die für das Cover einer der ersten Biografien des Stars Verwendung fand.
