Title |
The Global Flows of Early Scottish Photography: Encounters in Scotland, Canada, and China
|
Abstract |
The author explains that almost immediately after the invention of photography in the early decades of the nineteenth century, Scottish photographers took their clunky cameras on the road to capture the stories of peoples and communities touched by the forces of British imperialism. For the next thirty years, their journeys would take them far from their homes in the Lowlands to the Canadian wilderness and the treaty ports and rivers of China. The author tracks the work of several famous Scottish-born innovators of the art form, including Montreal's William Notman (1826-1891) and Alexander Henderson (1831-1913).
