Harry Benson's career is a roll-call of contemporary history and culture, and some of his images have achieved icon status.
Benson arrived in America with the Beatles in 1964. He has photographed every American president since Dwight D Eisenhower, was just feet from away from Bobby Kennedy when he was assassinated, and was in the room with Richard Nixon when he resigned.
On display are a range of images of world leaders and events; icons of fashion, music and film; and Scottish and American athletes. There are also images from his recent book Harry Benson's Glasgow.
Harry Benson works for many high-profile magazines, including Life, Vanity Fair, Architectural Digest and the Sunday Times Magazine.
