Description: Albumen print of Shakespeare monument Stratford upon Avon church c.1863 by Francis Bedford 1815-1894. 15.5 x 10.5 cms vintage albumen print mounted on card. Good condition. Foxing on mount. Francis Bedford was one of England's most prominent landscape photographers and the first to accompany a royal tour. For much of his career Bedford tended towards photography as an art form, painting in clouds, enhancing fine detail with pencil or brushes, and using tissue paper to darken negatives to improve lighting, but by the late 1870s, he was an advocate of simplicity. Between 1851 and 1894 he produced nearly 9,000 wet collodion negatives and albumen prints, making him one of the most prolific landscape photographers of his time. Delivered in an acid free archival sleeve and reinforced hard backed envelope. Happy to combine postage.
