Remembered Today:

Capt John Warwick Brooke

Recommended Posts

Capt John Warwick Brooke was an early War Photographer (my current take on him) was one of the original War Photographers on the Western Front

His Western Front Pictures are legendary (selection here)

However in 1920 & 1921 he was employed as the Military Photographer in Dublin Castle, however I cannot find any photos attributed to him in Ireland, though countless were so attributed to him for his work on Western Front

Has anyone come across his photos in Ireland?

I was just going over the stuff I have on him, and he seems to disappear historically after 1922. Nothing appears to be written about any later work nor can I find his death. His photos in WW1 were much feted and he got OBE for his photographic work in WW!, then he seems to produce nothing more.

An Ancestry tree suggests that he died in Uxbridge in 1929, but that may be just from a stab at BMDs.

Can anyone help?
