LONDON, July 5, (Reuters) - Personal and previously unseen photographs taken by musician Paul McCartney as 'Beatlemania' was soaring in the 1960s have gone on display at The National Portrait Gallery in London.
"They document this period in which they went from sort of Beatlemania in Britain through to global fame - through... their first ever visit to America," exhibition curator Rosie Broadley said.
There are over 250 photographs from McCartney's archive on display, which even his team hadn't seen for decades.
"A lot of (the photographs are) very intimate and personal....which is why it's called 'The Eyes of the Storm,'" Broadley said.
With photographs taken in London, Paris and across America, the exhibition is on until October 2023.
