A personal and complete retrospective by one of the most important
twentieth-century photographers. Elegantly curated by the legendary
photographer and his youngest daughter Frances von Hofmannsthal,
Snowdon looks back at an exceptional life and features a selection
of 175 full-colour and black-and-white stylish fashion photographs
and iconic portraits taken throughout his expansive and influential
career. Having started photographing at a young age, Snowdon
focused primarily on theater, fashion, and society photography
before becoming the official Royal photographer and starting a
six-decade working relationship with Vogue. In 1960, he married
Princess Margaret, the sister of Queen Elizabeth II, and in 1961 he
began his illustrious career with The Sunday Times magazine. Known
for his expressive and candid portraits, using both subtle humour
and quiet sincerity, Snowdon's work evokes a sense of familiarity
met with extreme beauty. His successes have branched equally from
the worlds of high fashion and celebrity to the British Royal
family, making his audience vast and beloved. The subjects featured
include Cecil Beaton, Charlie Chaplin, David Bowie, Marlene
Dietrich, Bridgette Riley, David Hockney, Serge Gainsbourg, Yves
Saint Laurent, and Jack Nicholson, among others. Archive material
includes previously unpublished polaroids, private scrapbooks, and
letters.
