Colin Garratt

    Colin Garratt était un photographe ferroviaire dont l'œuvre s'est attachée à capturer le charme et l'histoire du voyage sur rail à travers son objectif. Il publiait fréquemment des albums photographiques où il sélectionnait et légendait le travail d'autres photographes. Son approche de publication, se présentant comme l'auteur principal et apposant son nom sur la reliure, a suscité des discussions sur la paternité et la reconnaissance des artistes originaux. Son héritage réside dans sa vaste documentation visuelle du monde ferroviaire.
