Here we see three of the best known British photographers of the twentieth century. Bailey (1938) and Donovan (1936 - 1996) are two of the photographers known for capturing London in the 1960s; photographing the life of celebrity and high fashion. The third, Lichfield (1939 - 2005), is perhaps best known for taking the official photographs at the wedding of the Prince and Princess of Wales in 1981. All three emerged as photographers at a time when celebrity culture was at its height and became celebrities themselves. This photograph was taken for an Olympus advert.
