John Hope-Johnstone (photographer)
Charles John Hope-Johnstone (1883-1970) was a British photographer and a member or associate of the Bloomsbury Group[1] He served as editor of the Burlington Magazine from 1919-1920 and tutored the children of Augustus John. He had walked to Bosnia with Gerald Brenan before World War I, and introduced the latter to the Bloomsbury Group in 1919.[2]
Anthony Powell, in his memoirs, describes Hope-Johnstone's status as "not 'of Bloomsbury' in anything like the strictest sense", but "accepted in Bloomsbury circles as an equal".[3]
