An extensive record of clothing, accessories, styling and editorial fashion, informed by Harper's training at the Condé Nast studios and his long relationship with leading British publications.

Beauty and cosmetics

Lipsticks, powders, nail colour, creams, compacts, brushes and carefully composed product groups, photographed with an exact understanding of colour, texture and surface.

Jewellery

Diamonds, rings, necklaces, pearls, bracelets, brooches, tiaras and cufflinks, including photographs associated with De Beers and the Millennium Star diamond.

Fragrance

An archive of perfume and bottle design in glass, metal, colour and reflection, with material associated with leading international fragrance houses.

Portraits

Actors, artists, writers, musicians, public figures and less familiar faces, brought together through formal sittings, performances and observed encounters.

Music

From Harper's first sold concert photograph of The Who to later photographs involving David Bowie, Eric Clapton, Paul McCartney and Wings, Van Morrison and other musicians.

London

Editorial studios, New Bond Street, Chelsea Arts Club, London Bridge and street scenes from the 1960s and 1970s form part of a wider record of the city in work and transition.

Places and travel

Scotland, Jamaica, Paris, Rome, Tuscany, New York and other locations appear through landscapes, architecture, streets, gardens and commissioned journeys.

Interiors and design

Furniture, glass, lighting, textiles, rooms, tableware and domestic objects photographed as expressions of design and material culture.

Food and drink

Editorial and commercial still life encompassing ingredients, prepared dishes, confectionery, cocktails, wine, spirits, glassware and the rituals of serving.

Marine and superyachts

High-end marine photography from the later part of Harper's career, extending the discipline of the studio into vessels, open water and coastal light.

Analogue and Polaroid

Medium-format colour transparencies, black-and-white negatives, contact sheets and more than 4,000 individual Polaroid prints preserve both finished images and the working intelligence behind them.

Understanding the catalogue

The archive inventory distinguishes between frames and unique shots. A sequence may contain several exposures or closely related variants of one composition. Counts on Archive.London are therefore presented carefully and are not used to suggest that every frame is a wholly separate finished work.

The collection comprises 52,684 unique analogue photographs and 42,803 unique digital photographs. Many analogue holdings are medium-format colour transparencies, accompanied by black-and-white negatives, contact sheets, larger-format film and Polaroid material.

Some online pages include selected images. Others provide an editorial description based on the catalogue descriptions while digitisation and image selection continue. An unillustrated page does not indicate an empty collection.

Professional research

If a subject is not yet represented by a public page, Archive.London may still hold relevant material. Professional enquiries should identify the intended project, subject, publication or production, likely use and required timescale.
