Lee Miller Archives

The Lee Miller Archives (LMA) is a small, privately run archive which is dedicated to conserving, publishing and cataloguing the lifestyle and holding of works by Lee Miller and her husband Roland Penrose.

The aim of the LMA is to promote scholarship and dissemination of Lee Miller & Roland Penrose’s work worldwide in a manner commensurate with the artistic and humanitarian principles of the two artists.

The LMA is supported entirely on the sale of rights, photographs and the opening of her home, Farleys House & Gallery, to the public.

The LMA holding includes some 60,000 negatives, mainly black and white, most of Lee’s manuscripts, captions, notes, letters and ephemeral material, her cameras, and some of her personal effects and clothes such as her US Army uniform. We hold approximately 3,000 photographs by Roland Penrose and photography by David E. Scherman, Man Ray, Antony Penrose and Andrew Lanyon.

Farleys House & Gallery Ltd. are the managing agents for the Lee Miller Archives.

All Lee Miller’s work is copyright © Lee Miller Archives, and may not be reproduced in any way, stored in a retrieval system or copied without prior consent.
