Art: Photography John Swannell

  • Sirjohngielgud_large

Over his 35-year career, photographer John Swannell has shot lakes and mountains across the globe, dramatic nudes and models showcasing the latest catwalk collections, but he's most famous for his photographs of well-known faces. These intimate portraits include royals (Diana laughing with the young princes), musicians (Pete Townshend leaning moodily against his guitar), artists (Gilbert & George in their Spitalfields home) and actors — one highlight is a particularly joyous shot of Sir John Gielgud jumping in the air.
