Robin Hanbury-Tenison, one of the greatest explorers of our time, is a tireless champion of the rights of tribal people and in the early years of his travels was an obsessive photographer of their homelands as they were eroded by the modern world. This exhibition at Dimbola Museum and Galleries is a series of photographs and artefacts from Hanbury-Tenison’s personal archives which unearth beautiful insights into a vanished world.
