Description: | This platinum print by Colonel Joseph Gale (1830-1906) entitled 'Sleepy Hollow' was taken in 1885. Gale loved to wander through the countryside of Surrey, Berkshire and the Sussex Downs with his camera. He was known for photographing figures in rural landscapes. His approach to photography tended to be naturalistic rather than picturesque, taking particular care in the composition of his subjects. Joseph Gale specialised in naturalistic photographs of rural life and figures in landscapes. He was a member of the Royal Photographic Society before becoming a member of the first members of the Linked Ring Brotherhood in 1892, where he went by the name of 'Rambler'. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.5/ | Subjects: | photograph platinum print | Temporal: | 1885 | Source: | Science Museum | Creator: | Gale, Joseph (1830-1906) | Identifier: | 2003-5001/2/20015 | Go to resource |
