Known primarily as a painter, Keith Vaughan was also a photographer of considerable merit whose images witnessed enormous social shifts in 20th-century Britain. “The Photographs” provides a definitive account of this lesser-known professional activity, bridging the gap between his private life and his public art. From silver-grey silver gelatin prints of friends on Pagham Beach to formal studies of the male form, the book showcases Vaughan’s dual role as a master of both figure and ground. This 162-page volume from Pagham Press is an essential resource for specialists in Modern British Art and those interested in the history of male portraiture.
