Artist

Moira & Haigh

Moira & Haigh is an Impressionism artist. 2 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

Moira and Haigh spent their evenings at London’s Theatre Royal sneaking backstage to photograph actors mid-change, their bulky camera hidden under a coat like contraband. One shot shows a man in a ruffled collar adjusting his cuffs, caught between the glare of gaslight and the shadow of the wings. Their pictures feel like you’re standing in the hallway with them, waiting for the cue to go on. Move past the velvet ropes and peer at *Guy Little Theatrical Photograph* in the archive—it’s the next best thing to sharing the same cramped corridor.
