Charles E Brown was born on January 20, 1896, in Wimbledon. He was a commercial aviation photographer. Brown's father was a butcher in Wimbledon, London. He was given a camera for his 14th birthday and in 1911 photographed an Edwardian gentleman who was in trouble landing his balloon in neighboring Southfields. This was published in the Daily Mirror and he was paid a fee of a half-guinea. Brown was encouraged to join the Daily Mirror's photography department upon leaving school at 16. Towards the end of the First World War, he served with the Royal Air Force at their official London Photographic Centre. Following the war, he took to photographing trains and captured a famous photograph of a Southern Railway locomotive that was used for the following ten years in railway posters. The income from this allowed him to pursue his passion for aviation photography in the 1920s and 1930s and helped him to get commissions from the Air Ministry and the Admiralty for the Fleet Air Arm During the war, his work included commissions for Aeronautics magazine. Charles E Brown died on October 9, 1982, in Storrington, West Sussex.

Ted Higby at Skyline Rodeo, 1928
By Lora Webb Nichols
Located in New York, NY
Listing includes framing with UV plexiglas, free shipping and a 14 day return policy. Ted Higby at Skyline Rodeo, 1928 15 x 12 inch gelatin silver print Image Size: 14 x 8.5 inches Frame size: 22.5 x 17.5 x 2 inches Edition of 15 Lora Webb Nichols was born in 1883 and grew up in the small mining town of Encampment, Wyoming. At the age of 16 Lora received her first camera and from that moment and for the next few decades she produced work that is both stunning in its singular voice and revealing in the world it opens up for us. At first Nichols photographed her family, friends, and the landscape around Encampment, but when the town experienced a copper mining boom Nichols expanded her scope to become a photographer for hire shooting portraits and industrial photographs. When the boom collapsed, Nichols took the risk of opening her own business in Encampment - The Rocky Mountain Studio - which opened in 1925. The studio ran for ten years, accumulating 24,000 negatives that illustrate the lives and environment of the people living in and around the town while creating a distinctive and surprising body of work. If one was to attempt an analogy – Nichols’ pictures fit somewhere between Lartigue and Lange - joyful and generous while objectively intimate. In particular what seems to distinguish Nichols’ work is the way she sees the world from a female perspective. As Vince Aletti...
