description: This is the first monograph by the legendary Oscar-winning cinematographer Sir Roger Deakins best known for his collaborations with directors such as the Coen brothers Sam Mendes and Denis Villeneuve. It includes previously unpublished black-and-white photographs spanning five decades from 1971 to the present. After graduating from college Deakins spent a year photographing life in rural North Devon in South West England on a commission for the Beaford Arts Centre; these images are gathered here for the first time and attest to a keenly ironic English sensibility also documenting a vanished postwar Britain. A second suite of images expresses Deakins' love of the seaside. Traveling for his cinematic work has allowed Deakins to photograph landscapes all over the world; in this third group of images that same irony remains evident.
