PROPERTY FROM THE COLLECTION OF THE LATE NORMAN HALL The following 44 lots are from the extensive collection constituted by Norman Hall through his career as a picture editor. These prints illustrate the range of his sensibility, and bear witness to the respect and friendships that he enjoyed among photographers. Hall's passion for photography and his sharp eye for quality and for artistic integrity earned him an important position as a champion of the medium, at a time when it had yet to establish the status it has rightfully enjoyed in more recent decades. Norman Hall (1910-1978) was born in Western Australia, came to Britain during the war to serve as an RAAF pilot and settled here in the early 1950s working at first as assistant to Harold Lewis, editor of Photography. For a decade from 1954 to 1963, he edited the Photography Year Book, making it a distinguished and influential showcase of the best international work. In 1957, Hall staged the first London showing of the work of Henri Cartier-Bresson; the photographer is represented in the present catalogue by a series of the very prints presented in this landmark exhibition. Hall later became picture editor of The Times. Though Norman Hall's name may not be widely recognised today by younger audiences, his significant influence can be measured in the widespread appreciation that photography enjoys as a creative and expressive medium.
