Exposures by Jane Bown

Working almost exclusively in black and white and with natural light, Jane Bown produces astonishingly candid photographs that reveal the private side of her famous subjects. This collection not only presents Jane's well-known shots, it also goes behind the scenes to reveal unpublished pictures - the ones that hit the newsroom floor.
"She can look at a person and she knows, instinctively, straight away, who they are" -- Bjork
