In this series, five writers look at how sports have been captured in the arts, from novels to film, photography to painting. Each looks at how the sport illuminates and resonates in the artform, and how it increases our understanding and love of the sport.

Today, award-winning sportswiter and author Simon Barnes considers the immortalisation of Roger Bannister's record-breaking mile in a still photograph - by agency snapper Norman Potter. He argues that these often anonymous or little-known sports photographers have become the architects of the archetypes of our age.

Simon Barnes is Chief Sports Writer and columnist for 'The Times', and author of several books on sport.
