Harold Cazneaux b. 30 March 1878

Also known as Harold Cazneau, Caz, Harold Pierce Cazneaux
  • Artist (Photographer)
Cazneaux was the leader of Australian Pictorialist photography in the first half of the 20th century. The soft focussed beauty of his images helped a wider understanding that photography was more of an art form and not simple reproductive technology.
