The Vienna Album

Broodingly powerful, intensely emotional, seductively erotic, and always dramatic, this collection of 142 truly extraordinary images bears witness to the career of one of our greatest photographers.

Albert Watson has made his mark as one of the world's most successful fashion and commercial photographers during the last three decades, while creating his own art along the way. Over the years, his striking images have appeared on more than 250 covers of Vogue and have been featured in countless other publications - many of the photographs iconic portraits of rock stars, actors and other celebrities. Albert Watson, born in Edingburgh in 1942, is among the world's most revered fashion and commercial photographers. He studied graphic design and film before launching his career in photography in Los Angeles in 1971. He moved to New York in 1976 and began photographing extensively for magazines as Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, GQ, Live, Time, Rolling Stone and Stern. He was the official Royal Photographer for Prince Andrew's wedding to Sarah Ferguson.
