At the start of this week when I was in the midst of designing the newspaper for the modern gentleman work my brother Ben emailed me a link to this new website called 'The New Gentleman's Journal'. The notion they are trying to get across to the viewers of the website is very similar to the points and issues I am looking at within the modern gentleman work.
The website basically takes men who they think epitomise the new gentleman, there are musicians on it, carpenters, letterpress makers. They interview each one of them and take photos and a short video to go with it. I find it interesting that within the interviews and photos it shows a wide variety of different males who not only visually look different represented by the clothes they wear but how they all do different things and have different beliefs, this is in essence the beauty of the modern gentleman, which is exactly the point I made within the first instalment of the modern gentleman work.
Truly interesting website and defiantly worth looking at.
