Pictures from a glass house: Julia Margaret Cameron’s portraits

Julia Margaret Cameron took up the camera at the age of forty-eight, converting a chicken coop into a photo studio and enlisting friends to pose as figures from myths and legends. Critics of the time were openly hostile to her unorthodox methods, yet she persevered. Learn the story behind Cameron’s otherworldly portraits.

    Most portraits of that time are only significant because of the subjects. Cameron's images would still be exceptional if her subjects were not.

    Really good biography. Now soft focus and shallow DOF are all the rage for portrait photography.
