About the artist:

From the ‘Shrimp’ and the Krays to Jagger and The Beatles, David Bailey photographed them all. 

He was one of the seminal figures of the Swinging Sixties, a photographer who became a global star in his own right and shot every one of any note during that sparkling decade. The impossibly glamorous David Bailey (known just as Bailey to his friends) had relationships with some of the most beautiful women in the world, including models Jean Shrimpton, Marie Helvin and Catherine Dyer, and French screen siren Catherine Deneuve (the last three all eventually becoming Mrs Bailey – he is still married to Catherine Dyer).
