Tish Murtha (1956–2013) was a British documentary photographer whose work forms a sustained record of working-class life in late twentieth-century Britain. Raised in Newcastle upon Tyne, Murtha photographed the people and places she lived among, producing images shaped by long-term engagement and close familiarity.
Her photographs document everyday life within specific social and economic conditions, often focusing on children and young people as part of the wider fabric of community life. Rather than seeking dramatic effect, Murtha’s work records ordinary moments with clarity and restraint.
Murtha is now widely recognised as one of the most important British documentary photographers of her generation. Her photographs are held in the permanent collections of the Tate and the Arts Council Collection.
All British Culture Archive prints and editions are supplied unframed and include a white border around the image. Border widths vary according to the proportions of each photograph.
If a mount is used, ask your framer to ensure that the full image, signature and edition details remain visible. A professional framer can advise on suitable archival mounting, glazing and frame options. Prints may also be framed without a mount.
