Mark Lewisohn is a historian, mostly known for his monumental biographical work on the Beatles. Words are his trade but he also likes to express himself through photographs ? pictures taken off the beaten track during long walks in the city. Mark likes to capture the traces left by architects and artisans ? masons, carpenters, painters and the like ? in places where people have lived and worked, where children played or went to school.00An Englishman in Mons is a selection of photos taken by Mark Lewisohn during his visits to the city of Mons in 2012 and 2014. They are an invitation for the reader to get lost in the author?s visions and lens ? to see the shapes, colours and humour we can overlook in life?s corners.
