	Julia Margaret Cameron's Women, Great Men and Others
		In "Julia Margaret Cameron's Women," biography served as a key to the psychologization of the otherworldly effects of Cameron's portraiture, and to the interweaving of life and literature in the gendered economy of the Victorian family.
		Cameron was firmly embedded in Victorian beliefs about feminine and masculine roles in and outside the home, and saw women through a literary veil complicit in the reproduction of conventional identities--tragic but principled heroines, long-suf fering but dutiful beauties, eternally tender mothers and the like.
		It is not simply that Cameron's soft-focus, mussed surfaces mark her distance from the crispness of bourgeois realism's instrumental relation to commercial portraiture (not to mention pornography), but that they mark her distance from other central tropes of the mother-photography relationship, especially as they have been written by photography's theoretical sons.

		Julia Margaret Cameron was born Julia Margaret Pattle in Calcutta, India, to James Pattle, a British official of the East India Company, and Adeline de l'Etang, a daughter of French aristocrats.
		Julia was educated in France, but returned to India in 1838, to marry Charles Hay Cameron, a jurist and member of the Law Commission stationed in Calcutta who was twenty years her senior.

	A History of Photography, by Robert Leggat: CAMERON, Julia Margaret
		Julia Margaret Cameron was an English photographer known for her portraits of eminent people of the day, and for her romantic pictures which, despite their technical imperfections, stand the test of time.
		Julia Margaret, by this time was aged forty-nine, her children had grown up, and her husband was often abroad on business.
		Cameron appealed to a..wide...public by her pefectly original and unique photographic work and subject pictures in which, after a daring fashion of her own, forfeiting the sharpness of definition which ordinary photographers strive for, and which is one of the things artists most dislike in photographic portraiture...she produced a series of heads and groups...

	Cameron's biography
		Julia Margaret Pattle was born in British India, on June 11, 1815, the daughter of an official in the Bengal Civil Service and a descendant of the French aristocracy.
		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.

		Indeed, Cameron titled another print of this image, “Sadness.” The artist in residence at her sister’s estate, Watts was Cameron’s mentor and the first person to whom Cameron ever showed her photographs.
		While Cameron rigorously sought to maintain the distinction between art photography and “professional” photography (she proudly saw herself as part of the former), she was not unconcerned with the market for her work.
		Born Julia Margaret Pattle on June 11, 1815 in Calcutta, India, Cameron was educated in France and England, traveled to South Africa with her parents, returned to India with her husband, and took the family to England upon her husband’s retirement in 1848.

	MFA Boston: Exhibition: Julia Margaret Cameron: Victorian Photographer
		Julia Margaret Cameron (1815-1879) was one of the most original British photographers of the nineteenth century.
		Cameron took up photography later in life, presented at age forty-eight with a camera by her daughter, and became one of the most colorful personalities in the history of photography.
		Cameron’s sensitivity to nuances of light and shadow was so profound that she can without exaggeration be described as "Rembrandt with a camera." She influenced the vision of generations of photographers who came after her.

		Cameron's photographs repeat Carroll's almost exactly, charting what Carroll wished to stave off: the changes in Liddell's face and body over time, the fact of her not staying forever and ever the same, except in the photographs that fix her perennially against their walls of foliage.
		Many of Cameron's housebound photographs of women are marked by intensive repetition, as in the photographs of her niece Julia Prinsep Jackson Duckworth Stephen, in whose individual maturation the stages of maidenhood, marriage, and widowhood are charted.
		Julia Jackson is on the show's catalogue cover, serving as an appropriate emblem for "Julia Margaret Cameron's Women," if not of the logic or purpose behind the exclusion of men from its walls as well.

	ArtScope.net: Julia Margaret Cameron's Women
		Julia Margaret Cameron is one of those early photographers we tend to forget about today, because photography today has been so influenced by Ansel Adams and the Westons.
		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.
		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.

		Julia Margaret Cameron was a latecomer to photography; she would not begin to photograph until she was 48 years old.
		Cameron was a believer in Transcendentalist thought, which maintained that "individual will and the love of beauty could make the invisible visible." This idea comes through in her work, where she hoped to capture the very essence of her sitters on film.
		One of Cameron's primary aims was to aid in the elevation of photography to a high art.

		Cameron was so pleased with the picture, Annie - My First Success, that she included a print in the albums she made for friends and patrons, partly in celebration of her "divine art", partly in the hope that they'd elicit more sales: her art was already proving expensive.
		When Cameron returned to England in 1848, one of her sisters, Sara Prinsep, hosted a salon at her home on the fringes of Kensington, providing Julia with a ready-made society of artists and writers, many of whom would later be her subjects.

		Cameron liked the soft focus portraits and the streak marks on her negatives, choosing to work with these irregularites, making them part of her pictures.
		Cameron's ambition as a photographer was to "secure [for photography] the character and uses of high art by combining real and ideal, and sacrificing nothing of truth by all possible devotion to poetry and beauty."
		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.

		Cameron’s images were strongly influenced by the Pre-Raphaelite painters – Millais, Rossetti, Holman Hunt and Watts – and nowhere more so than in her costume pieces illustrating religious, literary, poetic and mythological themes, for example her Arthurian photographs taken to illustrate Tennyson’s Idylls of the King (1874).

	Imperfectly Modern Women / Ambiguities connect Julia Margaret Cameron's Victorian portraits with the present
		The sharp formal and technical intelligence of Cameron's work are another surprise of ``Julia Margaret Cameron's Women.'' Her experimentation went far beyond costume, pose and literary pretext to lighting, focus and printing, which was always a small feat in the early years of darkroom chemistry.
		Julia Jackson is additionally fascinating for having been the mother of Vanessa Bell and Virginia Woolf by her second husband, Leslie Stephen.
		Cameron, a formidable character by all accounts, mingled with the cultural elite of Victorian Britain after settling with her husband on the Isle of Wight, which had the reputation of an intellectual enclave.

	Guardian \| Julia Margaret Cameron
		According to her son, the dying word of Julia Margaret Cameron - the Victorian photographer, best known for her pre-Raphaelite-tinged portraits of long-tressed women and faery-like children - was "beautiful".
		These images are at the heart of Cameron's aesthetic; they are the quiet stars of this comprehensive survey of her work.
		But they are biographically interesting, reminding us that Cameron was decidedly a woman of her colonial time and class (she refers to locals in Ceylon as "natives", just as she had called people on the Isle of Wight "peasants").
