The Norman Parkinson Archive

Culture

Parkinson always maintained he was a craftsman and not an artist. From his early days as a photographer up to his death he remained one of the foremost British portrait and fashion photographers. His work, following the lead of Martin Munkacsi at Harper's Bazaar, revolutionised the world of British fashion photography in the '40s by bringing his models from the rigid studio environment into a far more dynamic outdoor setting. Humour played a central role in many of his photographs which often included himself. As well as magazine work he also created celebrated calendars featuring glamorous young women.

The Norman Parkinson Archive has been managed since late 2005 by Eric Franck and Elizabeth Smith. The ownership of all Norman Parkinson’s work is vested in Norman Parkinson Limited.The Norman Parkinson Archive has the exclusive right to sell and/or licenses images belonging to Norman Parkinson Limited.

Comprising approximately 140,000 negatives and nearly 3000 original photographs the Norman Parkinson Archive is unique in its scope and depth. Most of the negatives are obtainable for syndication and many of the photographs are available for purchase.

Photographs available for purchase include vintage and modern prints, many of which are signed. Prices for photographs begin at £3000. A small selection of posthumous limited edition prints are available for purchase. These prints are released exclusively by the Archive and are marked with the official stamp on the reverse. Prices for limited editions start at £1000.
