| Title | 'Where We Once Gathered': Photographs taken by Herbert Walters documenting the lockdown of Birmingham |
| Level | Series |
| Date | 2020 |
| Description | This photographic study arose out of the Covid pandemic following the announcement of the national lockdown on 23 March 2020. Every day for a week early in the morning, the photographer would walk the same route from Handsworth to Birmingham, capturing the atmosphere of the deserted city centre and the inner suburbs en route. The photographic material forming the bulk of the first deposit (MS 5183 Acc. 2025/042) comprised a memory stick (returned to the depositor) containing the digital photographs, catalogued as part of sub series MS 5183/2/1. A hardcopy version of the exhibition catalogue was also added to the archive slightly later, catalogued as part of the supporting materials listed below in sub series MS 5183/2/2, as well as a set of large format exhibition panels / prints which have not yet been catalogued. |
