H. L. Oakley cutting a silhouette in his studio
Harry Lawrence Oakley (1882-1960), silhouette artist, pictured outside in studio on the pier at Llandudno in the midst of cutting a portrait of a young woman. Oakley, whose silhouettes were in demand for posters, magazines illustrations and advertising, also cut thousands of portraits during his lifetime. He set up studios around the country, at seaside resorts and in department stores, but Llandudno was a particular favourite of his and he returned for the summer season regularly. On the wall of his studio is a silhouette of a ballerina - image no 10645766. Date: c.1929
