Since my earliest days of collecting I have had, and still retain, a great passion for 19th-century travel photography. I am motivated by a visual wanderlust and a keen desire to learn more about other countries, cultures and their peoples. This gateway to explore unseen destinations was given to me via an amazing group of photographers, many of them unnamed and unknown. Undeterred by the rigour and hardship of travel at that time, and often burdened by the unwieldy and cumbersome photographic equipment of the past, they would set forth across the globe in search of adventure and discovery.
In this spirit we are delighted to launch a new feature and series in The Power of Photography project - A Room with a View. A place to explore the full history of collecting photography, how the medium developed, and the physical presence of each process and print. We’ll be offering works at all price points, all priced and available to ‘buy now’ - or make an enquiry to find out more.
The online portal for A Room with a View aims to recreate a visit to the gallery in person, in a warm and informal environment, sharing treasures from a forty year journey of appreciation.
