A Victorian Gentleman's North Norfolk: WJJ Bolding and his place in early photography - Hardcover
Views and personalities of the ever more popular North Norfolk, portrayed as consummate examples of very early photography by an acknowledged master - this is an irresistible combination. Photography did not become popular until the late 1850s and yet we see W.J.J. Bolding using both paper and glass negatives at least five years earlier. The combination therefore is not just another 'bygones' book of old farming methods and the like - colour matched and printed in high definition, the sepia images are spellbinding and wonderfully evocative of the period. After all, W.J.J.B. was a true pioneer whose life, almost exactly matching that of Queen Victoria, was dedicated to high quality in everything he did. A Victorian Gentleman's North Norfolk will enthrall both lovers of Norfolk as well as all those who would like to admire mid 19th-century museum calibre photography - never seen before.
