About
This selection of Horst P. Horst's work focuses solely on his exquisitely crafted and evocative platinum prints.
In 1987, a year after Hamiltons first exhibited Horst's work, Tim Jefferies and then co-owner Andy Cowan commissioned a series of platinum prints from Horst, of his most favoured photographs. The scale of the works made it an expensive and tentative move in the 1980s, but the end results and exhibition were an unreservedly great success.
