Annales de ma maison de verre

by Julia Margaret Cameron

"En 1864, quand elle eut cinquante ans, son fils lui offrit un appareil photographique. Ce présent lui fournit l'exutoire à son énergie : elle devint dès lors une photographe. Toute sa sensibilité s'exprimait dans cet art naissant" Virginia Woolf

About the author

Julia Margaret Cameron was a British photographer. She became known for her portraits of celebrities of the time, and for Arthurian and similar legendary themed pictures.

Cameron's photographic career was short, spanning the last eleven years of her life. She did not take up photography until the age of 48, when she was given a camera as a present. Her work had a huge impact on the development of modern photography, especially her closely cropped portraits which are still mimicked today. Her house, Dimbola Lodge, on the Isle of Wight can still be visited.

Jamais vu autant de coquilles en si peu de pages, un enfer à lire

[Avril · Rating 3 out of 5]

Une introduction intéressante à l'art et au monde de Julia Margaret Cameroun mais sa partie d'écriture est malgré tout un peu légère.
