“A good photograph is one that communicates a fact, touches the heart and leaves the viewer a changed person for having seen it”

ENQUIRE ABOUT THIS WORK
This image has always been my favourite Penn images. It ticks all of Penn’s own boxes for me. I remember when I first saw a print of it all those years ago. Its quiet dignity stopped me in my tracks. It was my Mount Everest of a dream acquisition, something to aspire to. Something that made your heart beat faster when you stood quietly in front of it, taking in its exquisite beauty and power. Dreams sometimes come true.
