  David Hamilton (British photographer) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
David Hamilton (born April 15, 1933) is a photographer from Britain.
As much of Hamilton's work depicts pre- and early-adolescent nude women, he has been the subject of significant controversy and child pornography allegations in North America and Britain, similar to that which the work of Sally Mann and Jock Sturges have attracted.
The Guardian (UK), June 23, 2005, wrote: Hamilton's photographs have long been at the forefront of the "is it art or pornography?" debate.

 Arts & Leisure: An Interview With Jock Sturges (The Boston Phoenix . 04-20-98)
Hamilton's work dreamily fetishizes young girls in bed, or by the water; one imagines he can quote whole passages of Lolita from memory, and not the ones about the American landscape.
Sturges is different: his photographs, taken among nudist families in California and France, are stark and earnest and conspicuously humane.

Rather, it's Hamilton's antiquarian style that appeals to me. Through elaborate processes, Hamilton has tinted and treated each of these monochrome photos until the woman's form is bathed in burnt red, cyan blue, dull silver or a light xanthous brown.
Even when he's presenting a startling photo, say, of his wife wiping her mouth with a napkin while a large phallus lies on a plate before her, or of a submissive, nude femme bent over while being caned, you seem to be imbibing the very essence of Old Europe.
I caught up with Hamilton while he was at the thatched cottage in the countryside he shares with his wife during the week.
