About the artist
David Trace was born in Cardiff, where he attended Canton High School for Boys. A painter, sculptor and photographer, Trace took thousands of photographs in the London borough of Lambeth, between the early 1960s and the late 1990s in collaboration with the Minet Library. During the 1970s, he also documented London’s Camden Lock, where he had a studio. Trace died in London in 2006 and his friends and relatives have created a blog which records some of his photographic achievements, including his portraits of Welsh artist Jeffrey Steele (who also has work in the Government Art Collection) and 1960s English poet Jeff Nuttall.
