Photographs of Britain in the wake of the Brexit vote are to go on show at the National Portrait Gallery.
The images, by Martin Parr, capture the “social climate” following the EU referendum of June 2016.
Parr’s snaps of designers Dame Vivienne Westwood and Sir Paul Smith, artists Tracey Emin and Grayson Perry and football legend Pelé will also be on show.
Parr said of his show: “One of the main themes will be British identity and given March 2019 is when we are supposedly leaving the European Union, the timing could not be better.”
Featuring works by Nicholas Hilliard and Isaac Oliver, the show will be the first major exhibition on Tudor and Jacobean portrait miniatures in the UK for over 35 years.
– Only Human: Photographs by Martin Parr, opens on March 7th 2019, and Elizabethan Treasures: Miniatures By Hilliard And Oliver on February 21st, 2019.
