Description

During the 1990s, when Martin Parr has travelled on assignment he has had his picture taken by a local studio photographer, or street photographer or in a photo booth. The result is a varied portfolio of portraits ranging from studio sets reminiscent of the heyday of the Victorian studio photographer; through to digitally manipulated images of Parr as Mr Universe, and images which have been re-touched in the studio's efforts to flatter Parr and make him appear 20 years younger.
