National Portrait Gallery, London Wed, 19th May 2010 - Sun, 6th June 2010 From £11.00*Irving Penn was one of the greatest photographers of our time. Focusing on his portraits of major cultural figures over the last seven decades, Irving Penn Portraits is a glorious celebration of his work in this genre. The exhibition includes over 120 exquisite prints, many vintage, ranging from his earliest portraits for Vogue magazine in 1944 to the present day. The variety and significance of sitters in Penn’s photographs is extraordinary. Among those featured in the exhibition are Truman Capote, Christian Dior, Duke Ellington, Alfred Hitchcock, Al Pacino, Edith Piaf and Pablo Picasso.
