The Grand Tourist
Editorial photography
Photographed for The Grand Tourist at the Martin Parr Foundation in Bristol, this portrait story finds Parr in the foundation’s library, home to more than 5,000 photobooks he collected, weeks before his passing in December 2025. The photographs reflect a lifetime spent looking closely at the everyday, and the collection he built around that way of seeing.
