Francis Frith’s West Sussex

12200944090?profile=originalIf you can't get enough of Frith, then you're in luck. Especially if you happen to live in West Sussex too!

This is because West Sussex libraries in Chichester, Bognor Regis, Littlehampton and Crawley are the first of ten in the county to showcase photographs taken by renowned photographer Francis Frith over the next three months, until 31st March. All together nearly a total of 200 photographs, dating back from the 1890s to 1930s will be on display to coincide with the BBC 2 series. 

They will then be on show at Worthing and Horsham from Monday, April 2, to Saturday, April 21, and Shoreham from Monday, April 2, to Friday, April 13.  The libraries will also be selling A3 reproductions of the photograph - you've seen the series, you've read the book, now buy the prints!

All the photographs featured in the displays are available to view at the West Sussex Past Pictures website.
