John Alinder: Portraits 1910-32

By John Alinder

From the 1910s to the 1930s John Alinder photographed in his home village of Savasta in Sweden, portraying local people, the surrounding landscape and their way of life. His portraits are extraordinary - children placed on chairs, old ladies, people perched in trees, labourers and confirmation candidates; often depicted against a background of foliage and sprawling greenery penetrated by sunlight. The Alinder collection was 'discovered' in the 1980s when a curator found over 8,000 glass plates stacked away in a library basement.
