Habicht’s images, of stars such as the Rolling Stones and Jane Birkin and of the everyday, defined the spirit of an era
In 1960s London, photographer Frank Habicht’s work captured the spirit and energy of the era, turning his skill to celebrities as well as the wider public to produce images that helped define a generation.
His ability to immortalise moments and capture the souls of his subjects made him a renowned figure in the world of photography. One of his most iconic works, Lost in a Dream – a tender portrait of Jane Birkin and Serge Gainsbourg in 1969 – has been praised as one of the most beautiful photographs of the couple ever taken.
