One of the foremost photographers of the 20th century, Snowdon has, at one point or another, also been an accomplished architect, writer, award-winning film-maker, designer for the stage, garden and industry, craftsman, inventor, and spokesman for a multitude of causes. This retrospective reflects both the cornucopia of Snowden's achievements and his international status as one of the world's most highly acclaimed and respected creative photographers. Covering the complete range of Snowdon's photography for over 50 years, this book includes the fashion tableaux that set the style for modern British magazine photography; the pioneering examples of reportage for Life magazine and Sunday Times; still-life and landscape; studies of the ballet and theatre; and Snowdon's renowned celebrity portraits.
