Industrial River: The photographs of William Jackson

A talented amateur photographer, William Jackson (1893-1966) was captivated by the dramatic compositions and subjects he found along the rivers Hull and Humber. Taken in the years 1933-1949 these striking images are a snapshot of a maritime landscape in transition.
