Peep Show Research 6

Coronation Peep Show Book



The ‘Picture Post’ Coronation Peep-Show Book, by the distinguished British photographer Edwin Smith and his wife Olive Cook (pub. Hulton Press), rendered the soaring vaults and vistas of Westminster Abbey in a brightly coloured concertina of pliable pomp and circumstance.

Edwin Smith's 'Coronation peep-show book', published in London by the Hulton Press, 1953, is a colour printed folding concertina with a peep hole to view the Coronation Ceremony. The layered method is most popularly used when creating peep shows however thing is an approach that I don't plan to take. Instead I hope to create a layered style peep show but in a more 3D style. When viewing the peep show from he viewing hole the mannequins will appear layered as some will be in front of the others but will all be individual pieces at separated by different distances  rather than one whole layer placed in front of a another whole layer.
