Helen Muspratt Photographer

I'm really hoping the current covid crisis will have lifted from museums as well as everywhere else by the autumn, because the Bodleian Library in Oxford is scheduling an exhibition of original photographs from the Helen Muspratt archive there.   Due to open 16 October 2020.

It will include all aspects of Muspratt's work, from  pioneering images of fellow artists like Eileen Agar and Paul Nash, 

through commercial university-town portraits  of eminent figures, to documentary accounts of the Soviet Union and Welsh valleys in the 1930s.
