Terrence Higgins Trust - 2024, Timed Auction

Richard Taylor-Jones is one of the UK's best known BBC wildlife cameramen and for the last 10 years has been photographing the sea obsessively from his home on the Kent coast in the UK. Taylor-Jones’s work has collectors around the world from New York, New Zealand and London, including international sports stars, actors and one of the world's largest dealers in Banksy prints.

Buoy No 413 is part of an ongoing 10-year study of a single marker buoy off the English south coast, produced as single edition photographs. The Buoy marks the safe shipping route through a stretch of water called The Downs. Although the weather conditions are forever shifting, The Buoy remains central in every photograph. A reminder, no matter what happens in life, be it dark and stormy, calm and peaceful, we all need that constant, that little bit of us, that is unchanging, and gets us through.
