Special Edition 20-21 May, 2017
The Great Hall, Kings College, London
THE LONDON PHOTOGRAPH FAIR - the UK's only established vintage photograph fair - is delighted to announce the return of its Special Edition, to be held on Saturday and Sunday the 20th and 21st of May 2017 at The Great Hall, King’s College London, adjacent to Somerset House.
The boutique event will allow established international dealers specialising in vintage photographs and photo-books to present their own curated displays of their best vintage material.
The London Photograph Fair: Special Edition coincides with Photo London next door at Somerset House.
On display and for sale will be unique and original vintage works from the entire history of photography from the 1840s through the 20th Century. Vintage modern masters from the 1920s will rub shoulders with rare daguerreotypes and original 1960s film and fashion press prints.
The Special Edition will present mostly framed works displayed on dealer stands throughout the venue. It is a must-visit event for anyone with an interest in photography and its history, and the visual arts more generally. The London Photograph Fair : Special Edition provides an unbeatable opportunity for new and experienced collectors alike to see and buy photography of all genres.
