Regno Unito – Irlanda

Ancor prima di diventare fotografa presso l’agenzia Magnum, Inge Morath aveva spo­sato il giornalista inglese del “Picture Post” Lionel Birch, e si era trasferita con lui a Lon­dra. Lontana dall’agenzia e dai fotografi con cui collaborava, comincia ad avvicinarsi au­tonomamente alla fotografia con l’aiuto di Si­mon Guttman, il fondatore dell’agenzia foto­grafica “Dephot”. Per la rivista “Picture Post”, progetta un libro su Londra realizzando anche reportage fuori città.

Nel corso di questi reportage, Inge Morath fa amicizia anche con Eveleigh Nash, membro dell’aristocrazia inglese, immortalata duran­te la sua partenza da Londra.

Before becoming a photographer at Magnum agency, Inge Morath married Lionel Birch, the english journalist of the “Pic­ture Post”, and moved to London with him.

Suddenly she was cut off by the agency and photographers and she began to study independently photography and with the help of Simon Guttman, the founder of “Dephot” photo agency.

She designed a book about London in cooperation with “Pic­ture Post” magazine realising also out of town reports.

As part of these reports, Inge Morath makes friends also with Eveleigh Nash, member of the english “Society”, she got in a shot, that became famous in the photographic tradition of “decisive moment”, during her departure from London.
