This August Farley’s House and Gallery – a dedicated space to the archives of this trailblazer – will open an exciting exhibition to the public of the iconic photographer’s life on both sides of the lens, including works by and of Lee Miller alongside contemporary images by Kimberley French and Kate Winslet. ‘Lee & LEE,’ pairs some of Lee Miller’s most iconic photographs with their counterparts from the highly anticipated feature film ‘LEE’ ahead of the film’s release by Sky in cinemas across the UK and Ireland on 13th September.

‘This photographer-writer-reporter did everything she did with love, lust, and courage, and is an inspiration for what you can achieve, and what you can bear, if you dare to take life firmly by the hands and live it at full throttle. Her legacy is extraordinary.’ 

– Kate Winslet on Lee Miller’s work and legacy

The exhibition will showcase comparative images of Lee Miller’s wartime reportage alongside photographs by official ‘LEE’ photographer, Kimberley French, of meticulously researched scenes recreated for the film. Additionally, it will feature photographs by Kate Winslet taken on set whilst filming using a Rolleiflex camera that was carefully researched and compared with Lee Miller’s own camera, currently housed at Farleys.
