Martin Parr’s photography is concerned with people and how they live their lives. This photograph depicts a couple with contrasting priorities; one takes in the breath-taking landscape of Snowdonia national park, whilst the other, seemingly oblivious to the views outside, catches up on the tabloid news.

We have a duty of care to all our audiences. This website draws on legacy collections data. We recognise that some of this information may be outdated or discriminatory and we're currently working to review our records. If you have any questions or comments on an artwork, please contact us.
