Capturing the English countryside in iconic and authentic black-and-white photographs, this important collection showcases a life that holds fast to vanishing rural traditions. Affectionate yet unsentimental?with images that present the harsh realities of bloodstained slaughterhouses alongside a nostalgic night hunt?these photographs encompass the common nature and soul of rustic peoples, whose tough grittiness and humor shine through the camera. With a deep appreciation of an idyllic lifestyle, this ethnography is a celebratory document of a threatened existence.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Returning to the North East in 2001 to document the Durham Coalfield, at one time the heartland of the British coal industry, Chris Steele-Perkins found himself in that ex-urban culture that we now associate with 'Billy Elliot'. This world of 'lamping' (for rabbits), ferreting, whippet racing, grouse shooting, pigeon fancying and the rearing of birds of prey is a survival of what D. H. Lawrence once described as 'a curious cross between industrialism and the old agricultural England of Shakespeare and Milton'. Chris Steele-Perkins has memorably recorded this with visual wit, and a constant eye for the extraordinary. Nor is he at all sentimental: the harsh realities of blood-stained slaughter-houses and the vandalism of fly-tipping in the open countryside aren't excluded. His photographs, he says, 'serve as both eulogy and elegy'. Artikel-Nr. 9781904794202
