• Elusive
• Enigmatic and beautiful
• Joan Leigh Fermor (1914-2003) was also one of the finest photographers of her time
• Although hailed and hired by John Betjeman and Cyril Connolly from the 1930s
• And a remarkable recorder of the London Blitz
• She most excelled in pictures of unspoilt Greece taken between 1945 and 1960 as visual notes and with no thought of publication
• The scale of her achievement was only discovered after her death in 2003
• What emerge in her wide-ranging work is an eye of immense subtlety and empathy
• And an entire absence of ego
• The artist's ease is reciprocated in the faces of Cretan shepherds
