About akg-images

We are one of the world’s
leading image libraries
for art, culture and history.

Hello, we’re akg-images, a picture library specialised in fine art, history and vintage photography with well over ten million images. From our offices in London, Berlin and Paris we license images from our archive for reproduction across a range of media. We’ve been helping creative people illustrate their ideas for seventy years!

Through this blog, we hope to share with you what it is like to work with such a fantastic collection of images and with such a remarkable roster of photographers. Every day we’re lucky enough to look through amazing pictures and we’re heavily involved in an industry which continues to change and offer new opportunities and challenges.
