Of all the photographers’ work we’ve shared, Bill Brandt’s has always stood out for me.
This poignant scene of children caught in a pocket of light against a dark, brooding industrial background has long been a personal favourite.
Halifax, 1937 by Bill Brandt (1904-1983)
Scrubbing the doorstep - a Bill Brandt photo of a young East End woman cleaning the front step of a property in Bethnal Green. I can recall a product (Red Cardinal?) being used to bring up an enviable shine https://t.co/ze3tlgzseW

Bert Hardy served as a conflict photographer, working within the Army Film and Photographic Unit.
For our next video with Dr Tom Allbeson in the Bert Hardy collection, he takes us through some of the photographs and ephemera from Hardy's time as a conflict photographer.
We took a trip with exhibition collaborator, Dr Tom Allbeson (Senior Lecturer in Media History) to the Special Collections & Archive at Cardiff University to explore the Bert Hardy collection!
In this video, Tom introduces us to some ephemera from his early career!
Paolo Di Paolo.
One day in 1999, his daughter discovered his pictures: 250,000 negatives, prints and slides, dated between 1954 and 1968. When she asked him about them he said “I used to be a photographer. I’ve put it all behind me now, I don’t want to talk about it.”
Daido Moriyama returned to photography in the early 1980s, with the series Light and Shadow (1981) and Memories of a Dog (1982) investigating his past by revisiting places that had marked his youth.
