Britain's National Portrait Gallery, with support from the Chanel Culture Fund, will in June stage the largest show of Yevonde Middleton's color photography.

The show, which aims to position Yevonde as a trailblazer in the history of British portrait photography, will also include new prints and discoveries following research into Yevonde’s color negative archive, which was acquired by the gallery in 2021.

The exhibition, which runs from June 22 to Oct. 15, will also include commercial work, commissions and still life photography which the artist produced during her 60-year career. According to the organizers, the show will “reflect the growing independence of women after the First World War and focus on the freedom that photography afforded Yevonde, who became an innovator in new techniques.”Born Yevonde Middleton in 1893, the photographer was known as Madame Yevonde or Yevonde.

In 2021, Yevonde’s tri-color separation negative archive was acquired by the National Portrait Gallery. The Culture Fund later supported the extensive research, cataloguing and digitization of the archive, which led to the organization of the upcoming show.
