The former British member of Parliament, Mr Enoch Powell, photographed by Jane Bown. This photograph is from a collection of Miss Bown’s portraits of politicians, artists, writers, actors, and others taken for the British newspaper, the “Observer.” In his introduction, Lord Snowdon, no mean photojournalist himself, writes that he has always greatly admired Miss Bown’s work. “It has always achieved a standard of quality that is stunningly good,” he says. An index of its quality is the absence of paraphernalia around her. Most of the photographs reproduced in this volume were shot with an Olympus OM I, 50mm or 85mm lens, using available light, l/60th at f2.8 on Tri X. The book is called “Men of Consequence,” published by Chatto & Windus/Book Reps, at $34.95.
