About the artist

At the youthful age of 31, John Sadovy found himself in the midst of a ferocious revolt, defying death and dodging bullets to take incredible, award-winning photographs.

The fascinating images he captured depicted the dramatic Hungarian uprising. Sadovy, of Czechoslovakian origin, managed to penetrate the revolution in 1956, becoming one of the few photographers to do so. He cleverly bypassed the border guards by pretending to be an ice cream vendor. His extraordinary photographs received international acclaim, and he was awarded the Robert Capa Gold Medal, only the second person to ever receive it.

Sadovy also freelanced extensively in the 1950s, contributing to notable publications like Vogue, Time, Life, Paris Match, Picture Post, and Illustrated, bagging several accolades in the process.

In 1949, Sadovy relocated to London, aiming to make a name for himself in photography, though initially, he found it difficult to make ends meet. His big break came in 1951 when he shot swans on Chiswick pond with his last two film rolls. He sold the photos to Picture Post for £40, a significant sum at the time.
