The London Salon Trophy
The first time this much coveted international trophy had ever been awarded for a colour photograph was in 1967.  Presented to John N. Cohen for his creation 'Spirit of Spring' he was also the youngest member ever to have received it.

A small selection, from many reviews and letters received, after over a dozen major one-man exhibitions held in Europe and America.

"regarded as one of Britain's most original photographers."
The Times.

"A woman's face was exquisitely metamorphosed with the cup of a yellow tulip - a Femme - Fleur Picasso might have perpetrated had he taken to photography."
Arts Revue.

"To Cohen the impossible in colour merely takes a little longer."
Photography Year Book.

"I like his sense of angle."
Sir William Russell Flint R.A.

"Very marketable as well as interesting and adventurous in themselves with congratulations."
Cecil Beaton C.B.E.

"To view your pictures was a reward."
T. C. Grover  President   
The Institute of Incorporated Photographers.

"Many congratulations on the two photographs in `Colour Photography' which I think are marvellous."
Peter Sellers.

"This really is a remarkable picture.   Thank you so much.   My best wishes for your forthcoming exhibition for the Edinburgh Festival."
Lady Clementine Spencer-Churchill.

"All good wishes for a camera artist of sheer genius."
Bob Collins   Editor   `Masterplots' U.S.A.

"Congratulations on the Exhibition at the Kodak Centre in New York - I know the site and it is certainly one of the busiest points in the world."
Geoffrey Crawley   Editor   
The British Journal of Photography.

"Re: Photo Expo at the Coliseum New York.   The entire Exposition was a tremendous success and I want to thank you once again for making your print set available.   Your photographic work is outstanding."
Frank Pallo   Co-Ordinator   Photo Expo.

"Among those in which mind takes precedence over matter I would select `Galatea in Bronze' and `Spirit of Spring' both by John N. Cohen.   The latter, in particular, must be the product of very considerable thought and it is worthy of the highest praise."
H. A. Murch Hon. F.R.P.S.  Editor   
Amateur Photographer Magazine.
