Photographer Tim Mendelsohn is creating a new body of work that mirrors the Belle Vue studio archive, which captured thousands of portraits of Bradford residents between 1926 and 1975. By photographing modern-day residents in a similar style, the project aims to document the city's evolving social history and celebrate the personal stories of its people.
