This major new exhibition brings together, for the first time, the
works of four of the most celebrated figures in art photography, Lewis
Carroll (1832–98), Julia Margaret Cameron (1815–79), Oscar Rejlander
(1813–75) and Clementina Hawarden (1822-65). These four artists would
come to embody the very best in photography of the Victorian era. Their
experimental approach to picture-making and radical attitudes towards
photography have informed artistic practice ever since.
Featuring striking portraits of sitters such as Charles Darwin, Alice
Liddell, Dante Gabriel Rossetti, Thomas Carlyle, George Frederick
Watts, Ellen Terry and Alfred, Lord Tennyson.
