LUNCHTIME LECTURE: Photographers working in Britain since the Second World War have captured the diversity of the island and its people: from the humorous to the contemplative, and from the gritty to the glamorous. The rapidly shifting cultural environment after 1945 provided some of the greatest photographers of recent times with richly rewarding subject matter in the island of photography’s birth.

Martin Barnes, V&A Senior Curator of Photographs, looks at photographs addressing these themes in relation to a display of works from the V&A permanent collection.
