Intimacy and Influence
Not a household name but nevertheless one of the most important and innovative experimental photographers of the 19th century, Juliet Margaret Cameron (1815-1879) produced work that still resonates today.
Made up from the V&A's collection, this exhibition of over one hundred – beautiful, theatrical and haunting – photographs by Cameron offers a comprehensive retrospective of her work as well as examining her relationship with the V&A’s founding director, Sir Henry Cole, who in 1865 presented her first museum exhibition and the only one during her lifetime. The exhibition has been timed to coincide with the bicentenary of Cameron's birth.
