Description: | A photograph of a young girl holding a doll, taken by John Dillwyn Llewelyn (1810-1882), in about 1856. The subject is possibly of Elinor, one of Llewelyn's six children. The central portrait is framed with a wreath of ferns. Llewelyn took a series of botanical daguerreotypes for Kew Gardens as early as 1842. A photographic pioneer, Llewelyn was related by marriage to William Henry Fox Talbot (1800-1877). He developed his own photographic process, the oxymel process, and was a founding member of the Photographic Society of London. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.5/ | Subjects: | photograph salt print | Temporal: | c. 1856 | Source: | Science Museum | Creator: | Llewelyn, John Dillwyn (1810-1882) | Identifier: | 2003-5001/2/20563 | Go to resource |
