The name Pattie Boyd is synonymous with sixties counter-culture, from fashion to music to spirituality. It's not something that I can hang on to because it's too heavy a load to have in my mind all the time. Granting full and intimate access to her personal archive for the first time, the model and photographer shares over 300 pictures and artworks in a new book – and talks us through them. They really only showed very sophisticated models, probably aristocratic models, and it was so completely different.

To music fans, the mention of Pattie Boyd's name immediately conjures up two rock legends to who she was formerly married: first George Harrison and then later Eric Clapton. The photos of Boyd posing for advertisements and fashion magazines are time capsules of both the youth and post-modern art movements of the 1960s. We were just sitting there watching them photograph the waves, and then the girlfriend said to me, 'Would you like to photograph me? The last frame from my roll of film was when a wave came in just beside her and it hit the rocks, and it looks as if she was spouting the wave.Based in the charming market town of Petworth, Augustus Brandt is a purveyor of antiques, a bespoke range of furniture and unique home accessories.

Pattie taken on honeymoon in Barbados with George Harrison, 1966The name Pattie Boyd is synonymous with 60s counter-culture, from fashion to music to spirituality. An iconic figure of the 1960s and ’70s, Pattie Boyd breaks a forty-year silence in Wonderful Tonight, and tells the story of how she found herself bound to two of the most addictive, promiscuous musical geniuses of the twentieth century and became the most famous muse in the history of rock and roll. She documented their life together, and later her second marriage to Clapton, capturing a vast archive of images not just as part of two of the most famous marriages of all time, but also of their close friends and contemporaries, including Twiggy, David Bailey, Mick Jagger, Billy Preston and The Beatles. Pattie in studio darkroom by John Swannell, 2018‘I liked the idea of being independent and working, but not all the time. More than 50 years later, Boyd, who is now married to Rod Weston, has switched places from being photographed to getting behind the camera herself.The photos in My Life in Pictures also document Boyd's relationships with Harrison and Clapton in candid settings—outside of the paparazzi and intense media glare—whether it's at home or on the road.
