- Described by renowned British art critic David Lee as 'The most gifted black and white photographer of his generation' Robin Grierson turns to colour photography for this compelling new work
- The first art photography book to explore the world of steam rallies, opening a window into this lesser known aspect of British culture
- With a thoughtful introduction by acclaimed author Ian Jack
- Grierson's acclaimed Steam Rally photographs - a selection of which are now part of the V&A's permanent photography collection
- The first documentary photography book by the new publisher Lost Press
Robin Grierson's photography book, Steam Rally is published by Lost Press and has an introduction by the esteemed journalist and author, Ian Jack. It consists of 72 high quality colour photographs that explore steam rallies in England over the past 30 years. The images record the engine men, their restored traction engines, and the lively steam heritage scene, which draws thousands to its events around the country every summer.
Having grown up around his father's bus garage in County Durham and spent much of his formative years tinkering with engines, Grierson found himself instinctively drawn to the steam people and their beloved vintage machines. This collection of thoughtfully composed images, include respectful portraits, close up details of people and their machines, and wider views of the steam rally within the rural landscape. Grierson pays particular attention to the work-worn textures, stained surfaces, and subtle colours of the working steam environment.
"The genuine tone of this work derives undoubtedly from the photographer's long acquaintance with tough working men and the tools and sounds of busy engineering yard's." - Ag magazine
