Photographic historian advocating for early British women photographers 1839-1861.
Fellow of the Royal Photographic Society.
Delighted to receive the new biography of Anna Atkins by Corey Keller. It's a fascinating study of Anna’s life and work within the wider context of women’s 19th century lives.
Highly recommended read and, of course, stunning illustrations.
