As the curtains rise and actors step onto the stage, a world unfolds through the lens of Sigurhans Vignir, who memorably documented the life and work of the National Theatre on film between 1950–1965. His photographs capture the spirit of the theatre, from glimpses of the costume atelier and backstage rehearsals to grand stage designs and elegant theatregoers. The book Leikhúsljósmyndir Vignir presents 95 photographs that shed light on this history, offering it a renewed life and bringing it back into the spotlight.

Leikhúsljósmyndabók Vignir is María Vignir’s final project from the Iceland University of the Arts.
