Work prints are Non-Archival handmade on Resin Coated (RC) paper, and were printed in house. These prints are, where possible, made from the original negative.
RC papers are manufactured using thin plastic layers, on each side of the paper base to prevent chemical penetration during processing, which reduces washing time. The main advantages are that prints process quickly and dry flat. All our RC Work Prints are printed on a glossy surface to render the deepest blacks and present the widest tonal range.
Imperial 8 x 10 inches, Metric 200 x 255mm
Digital prints are made from digital images with a wet process, printed on non-archival paper. The original image is usually sourced from the vintage print or negative.
Imperial 8 x 10 inches, Metric 200 x 255mm.

She would have made a very good doctor, and in fact when she was living in Egypt she did enrol in medical school, but it seems like having a good time got in the way of this career.
George SANTAYANA is credited with a saying that goes something like 'Those who ignore history are condemned to repeat it' and this alone constitutes a worthwhile moral and objective basis for war tourism. When I myself visited Dachau I found the experience overwhelming, and it brought me closer to the sufferings of those who endured life in the camps and perished there. It also remind me about the astonishing capacity man has for inhumanity to man. I was interested to see the effect the place had on others. Some were stunned to abject, mute shock. Others shrugged it off with brash bravado, and this annoyed me until I went round a corner and found a young man sitting with his chums on the kerb. He was in tears, and his friends also close to breaking down. We all react differently and take away our own experiences of these places, but at some level it goes in and stays. I hope that it leads people to an evaluation of moral issues and of the importance of fundamental values like freedom in its many forms which we tend to take for granted so easily when we have it.
The danger of war tourism is that some sites become politicized, cheapened, sensationalised, or the message within them distorted. A high degree of integrity is essential on the part of the curators. One can see much of this range in exhibits and locations around the world. The Imperial War Museum London has a devastatingly detailed and poignant holocaust exhibit, and the Imperial War Museum in Manchester is wonderfully strident in its anti-war message. Yet inevitably sometimes the armed forces museums, despite their own good intentions, end up celebrating what is seen as the glory of war. It is a fine line, one that must be treated with great discernment. No one wants to denigrate the sacrifice and commitment of the serving men and women, but these exhibits are not always seen as challenging the basic concept of why we have wars in the first place.

As far as I know Lee was never wounded. She got a lot of bumps and bruises and a few small nicks, but nothing you could call a physical wound. However, you could say that she suffered severe emotional wounds from the things she saw and experienced, and this trauma affected her deeply long after the war was over.
