Of late the VV has been greatly amused while wondering through the virtual world of The Library of Nineteenth-Century Photography where a varied and astonishing range of Victorian photographs are found.
Below are some of her favourites, but do take a look at this online resource where many more images are found...providing a very rich source of material for all those who are interested in the era.
There are children...
And the elderly...
The disabled...
And exhibitionists...
Those who would rather not be seen...
The first African Anglican bishop...
And this Indian ayah in Windsor...
Many touching post mortem images such as this one from Japan...
A whole range of eccentrics...
As well as those more glamorous souls...
The VV does implore you to visit. She's sure you will be entertained.
