Framing
Burt Glinn: Three Gentlemen. We recommend book-mounting this print in a wide passe-partout and then framing it in a black wooden box. This classic method not only gives visual priority to the image but also fits seamlessly into most interiors. However, if you prefer a different look, other framing options are also available. Additionally, to ensure the highest levels of production, all of our frames are handcrafted to museum standards by one of the UK’s leading workshops. Please note that prices include tax, but exclude framing and shipping costs.
Shipping
We aim to ship unframed works within 2 weeks and framed works within 6 weeks. All orders are shipped from the UK and we always strive to deliver your print as quickly as possible. However, the delivery times may vary, depending on the specific artwork and your location. For exact details, please get in touch. Please note that prices include tax, but exclude framing and shipping costs.
Artwork In Detail
In a street photography style image, Burt Glinn photographed three gentlemen standing at Hyde Park Corner in London, each holding an umbrella as rain slicks the pavement. A classic red double-decker bus blurs past, capturing the movement and energy of the city. Together, these elements encompass a quintessential moment of London life. Presented in collaboration with Magnum Photos.

EnquireBurt Glinn (1925–2008), born in Pittsburgh, served in the U.S. Army and then studied literature at Harvard. He quickly joined LIFE magazine and, in 1951, became one of the first Americans to enter Magnum Photos, achieving full membership three years later. Glinn gained renown through vibrant colour series from the South Seas, Japan, Russia, Mexico, and California, and he also documented major events, including the Sinai War, the U.S. Marine invasion of Lebanon, and Castro’s rise in Cuba. Furthermore, he earned top honours, such as the Mathew Brady Award (1959), the Overseas Press Club Award (1967), and the Art Directors Club prize (1972). In addition, he twice led Magnum Photos as president and later guided the American Society of Media Photographers. Today, his photographs reside in major collections including MoMA (New York), the ICP (New York), the George Eastman Museum (Rochester), and also the Harry Ransom Center (Austin, Texas).
