	Cameron's biography
		Cameron's view is clearly stated in a letter to Sir John Herschel, to whom she writes, "My aspirations are to ennoble Photography and to secure for it the character and uses of High Art by combining the real and ideal sacrificing nothing of Truth by all possible devotion to Poetry and beauty" (Johnson 364).
		Cameron's illustrations are culled from the segments entitled "Gareth and Lynette", "Geraint and Enid", "Merlin and Vivien", "Lancelot and Elaine", "The Holy Grail", "Guinevere", and "The Passing of Arthur".
		Cameron reveals Guinevere as a soul struggling to maintain her vows and innocence, and the harmony of Camelot, where the dominance of the male is unquestioned.

		Cameron is "rediscovered" periodically, even though she is probably the most widely studied of photography's old masters, and her work never sinks from the radar screen of major collectors and institutions.
		Cameron was extremely conscious of fashion, even though she projected a sublime disregard for it, shrouding her models from the neck down in fl velvet or the folds of a shawl.
		Cameron's family circle was a photogenic trout pond of pulchritude and distinction, and when she needed a May Queen, a foolish virgin, or a hirsute sage all she had to do was fish one from her stock.

	Julia Margaret Cameron
		Cameron was part of a large family, the fourth of ten children, and had a large family of her own.
		In 1873 Cameron sent her sister Maria (Mia) Jackson a partially empty photo album, asking her sister to collaborate with her on the project in the years to come by adding images, as she sent them, in the places and the sequence she described.
		Although at the time Cameron was seen as an unconventional and experimental photographer, her images have a solid place in the history of photography.

	Masters of Photography: Julia Margaret Cameron
		Nothing in Julia Margaret Cameron's family background, class, or personal circumstances serves to explain why at the age of 48, presented with a camera as a gift from her two daughters, she embraced photography with an avidity that bordered on obsession.
		Inasmuch as the Cameron milieu included many of the great figures of Victorian arts, letters, and science, our sense of the faces (and to a certain extent the personalities) of notables such as Sir John Herschel, Thomas Carlyle, Charles Darwin, and Lord Tennyson has often been determined by Cameron's representations of them.
		Cameron's photographs passed largely into obscurity until they were enthusiastically rediscovered by Alfred Stieglitz and the Photo Secessionists.

	Julia Margaret Cameron - Famous Men and Fair Women
		In common with her sisters, Cameron actively sought out the company of the most notable men and women of the period and her models included the great writer Alfred, Lord Tennyson and astronomer and scientist Sir John Herschel.
		Cameron was especially drawn to photographing notable men of the period, hoping through her portraits to reveal something of the qualities that made them 'great'.
		Cameron's approach here, as with many of her portraits, was simple: she reduced the background clutter and accessories often associated with portraits of the period, focusing instead on the head of the subject which fills the frame.

	ArtScope.net: Julia Margaret Cameron's Women
		Julia Margaret Cameron embarked on a path in early photography that aimed to create a realm of photography that used the medium to utmost artistic sensibilities.
		However, what makes Cameron's photographs most intriguing is the fact that she came about her style not just due to fashion and style of the day, but that she came to the style on her own.
		Cameron did not have all the niceties of today's darkrooms to produce her art, and washed her prints and plates in their final rinse in a well-- which accounts for the many scratches and dust marks we see in her prints.

		In 1874, Julia Margaret Cameron was asked by her friend and neighbor Alfred, Lord Tennyson to illustrate a new edition of his Idylls of the King, a recasting of the Arthurian legend in which the poet laureate projected the downfall of Victorian society.
		Compared to earlier editions illustrated by Gustave Doré and by Pre-Raphaelite artists, Cameron's folio, with twelve large original photographs and a frontispiece portrait of Tennyson himself, was decidedly extravagant.
		Cameron lavished great care on this, her last project, making 180 exposures of her family and friends posed as living embodiments of the moralizing episodes.

		Julia Jackson, the photographer's niece and future mother of Virginia Woolf, was Cameron's favorite model--and the one woman Cameron always cast as herself, titling one 1867 image My Favorite Picture of All My Works.
		As Cameron was less concerned with technical exactitude than the essence of the image, the blurring brought on by a model's movement or insufficient light is faithfully maintained, serving to heighten the mystery and allure of the images.
		Julia Margaret Cameron was a pioneer of photography and one of the great portrait photographers of all time.
