One of the few UK auction houses with a dedicated Fine Photographs department, our sales proudly showcase a wide range of photographic prints and objects, from pioneering artists of the daguerreotype process to the work of modern and contemporary masters.
Our specialist sales span innovative early processes, documentary, fashion, and experimental modes of photography.
We regularly feature iconic 19th century photography from William Henry Fox Talbot, Gustave Le Gray, and Julia Margaret Cameron, whose work continues to shape the field today.
For collectors of modern and contemporary photography, our sales also offer an array of humanist and social documentary pieces by names such as Robert Capa, Willy Ronis, Berenice Abbott, Ernst Haas, Andy Warhol, and David Bailey. The department also features celebrated fashion photography from Horst P. Horst, Man Ray, and Irving Penn.
