        Nineteen albumen photos by G.W. Wilson

        Est: $200 - $300

        Heading: Author: Wilson, George Washington Title: Nineteen albumen photographs by George Washington Wilson Place Published: Aberdeen, Scotland Publisher:George Washington Wilson Date Published: [1850s] Description: 19 albumen photographs. Sizes vary. George Washington Wilson was an important early Scottish photographer. In 1849, he began a career as a portrait miniaturist, switching to portrait photography in 1852. He received a contract to photograph the Royal Family, working for Queen Victoria and Prince Albert. He pioneered various techniques for outdoor photography as he gradually began to emphasize landscape photography in the 1860s. His photos cover the whole of Scotland, most of England, as well as parts of Wales and Northern Ireland, and Gibraltar. Pioneering the development of techniques for photography outside of the studio, he moved increasingly from portraiture to landscape photography in the 1860s. He also produced stereoscopic pictures whose main characteristic was that exposures were very short.

From then on, i.a. by documenting the building of Balmoral Castle in 1854-1855, he established himself as one of Scotland's premier photographers working for Queen Victoria and Prince Albert in 1860. Pioneering the development of techniques for photography outside of the studio and the mass production of photographic prints, he moved increasingly from portraiture to landscape photography in the 1860s. From about 1870 onwards Wilson relied increasingly on others to add to his stock and at the time of his death his firm employed 40 staff and was one of the largest publishers of photographic prints in the world.
