Magnum photographer Philippe Halsman had a knack for collaborating with artists to create work that both showcased and riffed on their own creative practices - Alfred Hitchcock being one of many. Halsman met with and photographed Hitchcock over several years, at his home and on set, creating portraits that tapped into his macabre vision, all with a typical Halsman twist of fun.

This selection of images were taken on the set of “The Birds” (1963), widely considered to be a classic of cinema, and a a significant marker in Alfred Hitchcock's film-making career.
