Location: Barley Mow Centre
Lots: 313

Spanning nearly 200 years of photography history, the sale begins with a wide range 19th century processes, albums, and subjects, including an enigmatic portrait of a young man “contracting his eyebrows” from Guillaume Benjamin Duchenne Du Bolougne’s (1806-1875) landmark publication The Mechanism of Human Facial Expression, c.1854-1856, a beautifully-presented set of chromo-collotypes by master Japanese printer Kazumasa Ogawa (1860-1929), and a rare ambrotype depicting an distinguished African American gentleman, c.1860.

The sale continues into the 20th century with headlining works that include a pair of ‘loop-de-loop’ prints by Jacques-Henri Lartigue (1894-1986) from his personal albums, which embody the care-free and fun-loving life of the young photographer and his family, a rich platinum-palladium still life by Horst P. Horst (1906-1999) that demonstrates the photographer’s masterful use of light and process, a striking, large print of New York City’s Flatiron building by Berenice Abbott (1898-1991), and a selection of works by British social documentary photographers of the 20th century, including Thurston Hopkins (1913-2014), Colin Jones (1936-2021), Roger Mayne (1929-2014), and Wolfgang Suschitzky (1912-2016).
