NORMAN PARKINSON


TIMELESS ACT A photographic retrospective of vintage and estate prints by Norman Parkinson together with the latest body of works by Molly Gaisford

Curated by Monica Colussi


Norman Parkinson The British photographer was a gentleman in life and in his extended photographic career. He had a formidable aesthetic eye, and with style he captured the sort of photographs that injected glamour to many prestigious magazines and in particular to the pages of Vogue. Parks (as almost everyone came to know him) shot unforgettable travels for British Vogue for years, going places fashion never went in the late sixties and seventies. Born in 1913, he went on to attend Westminster School before beginning his photographic career with an apprenticeship at court photographers Speaight and Sons Ltd in 1931. By 1934, Parkinson had built up a client base large enough to enable him to open his own studio, in Piccadilly, and freelanced for a number of top fashion magazines, among them Harper's Bazaar and Bystander. War broke out in September 1939 and Parkinson's talents were needed elsewhere and he joined the RAF, serving in a Pathfinder squadron as a reconnaissance photographer. In 1945, he returned to fashion and a job with Vogue during which he met and married model Wendy Rogerson. When at British Vogue many changes occurred in the way fashion shoots were conducted, with Parkinson spearheading a move from the studio to location. He posed his models on the beach, on the streets and in one iconic shot. Parkinson wasn't only about fashion. In 1975, he relocated from London to Tobago, his career came full circle when he was appointed a court photographer to the Queen. Taking over from Cecil Beaton, Parkinson went on to photograph all of the senior royals and produced a series of stunning portraits. He photographed, Audrey Hepburn, the Rolling Stones, HM the Queen, Princess Anne, the Queen Mother, Jerry Hall, Grace Coddington and an endless list of famous names. Partly as a result of his work, he was made a Commander of the British Empire in 1981. Aged just 76 at the time of his death, Parkinson, 'one of the great eccentrics of the photographic world' according to model Twiggy, died as he had lived, taking the photos he so loved.
