Framing

For this picture, we recommend the 'BOX', a classic frame that is slimmer from the front and deeper from the side, turning your print into an elegant object on the wall. It is widely accepted as the finest way to frame photography, giving visual priority to the image and yet fitting stylishly into most interiors. Other options are of course available. All our frames are handmade by one of the UK's leading framing workshops, and are constructed to museum standards. Please note that prices do not include local taxes, framing or shipping.

Shipping

We aim to ship works that are unframed within 4 weeks and within 10 weeks for works that are framed, although sometimes we will beat that! All works are shipped from the UK. Please note that prices listed above do not include framing or shipping.

Artwork In Detail

Renowned for taking his subjects out of the studio, Norman Parkinson broke the mould by photographing his models in outdoor settings and natural light. This took portrait and fashion photography beyond the stiff formality of his predecessors, injecting an easy and casual elegance into the art.

    The Artist

    British photographer Norman Parkinson (1913 – 1990) was one of the most celebrated fashion photographers of the twentieth century. He worked for a wide range of publications, notably Harper’s Bazaar, Vogue, Queen, Town & Country, which brought him worldwide recognition. His photographs created the age of the supermodel and made him the photographer of choice for celebrities, artists, writers and politicians. His subjects include the British Royal Family, Audrey Hepburn, The Beatles, Twiggy, David Bowie and Jerry Hall, amongst many others. During his sixty year career, Parkinson reinvented fashion photography, as well as himself. Starting from his spontaneous images of the 1930s, through the war years, the glamorous ‘50s and the swinging ‘60s, to the exotic locations of the 1970s and 1980s. By the end of his life, he had become a household name, the recipient of a CBE, Honorary Fellow of the Royal Photographic Society, and the subject of a large-scale retrospective at the National Portrait Gallery in London. Parkinson died whilst on location in Singapore, shooting for Town & Country in 1990.
