Bill Brandt

Brandt was a British photographer and photojournalist. He became known for his images of British society for magazines such as: Lilliput, Harpers Bazaar and Picture Post and then later his distorted nudes, portraits of famous artists and landscapes. He is widely considered to be one of the most important British photographers of the 20th Century.
A surrealist to the end, Brandt brought a distinctly European gaze to bear on his emphatically English subject matter and, in doing so, showed his country and its people in a whole new light.
