Item Details

Description

Artist: WALTER BIRD

Print Title: Mathea Merryfield

Medium: Sheet-Fed Gravure

Printing Date: 1930's

Printed in London

Image Size approx: 10.5 X 8.5 inches

Walter Bird (1903-1969) was one of the UK’s most distinguished photographers of important people. A shy and reticent man to the unacquainted; for those who knew him, his sparkling wit matched his subtle photographic style and uncomplicated lighting technique. Bird was originally destined by his family to be an engineer. Instead, he completed his education by studying at the Richmond Art School and later in Paris. By using photography as a visual notebook for his early study of ‘life class’ nudes Bird unwittingly established the starting point for his romantic visualisation of the female form.
