Park and Boulton (Fanny and Stella)

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Female impersonators Frederick Park and Ernest Boulton. This photograph taken less than a year before their arrest by the Metropolitan Police for "conspiring and inciting persons to commit an unnatural offence".

The original photograph is held by the Essex Record Office and an un-restored scan made available on their blog in February 2013. The photograph was used as a full page spread in Attitude (a UK gay lifestyle magazine) in August 2013, issue 234 and appears in a cropped form but otherwise unaltered in the book "Fanny & Stella, The Young Men Who Shocked Victorian England" (2013) ISBN 9780571231904.

Digital restoration

  • The glass plate original had a major break in the upper left side, this has been realigned with the cracks masked.
  • The bottom right corner was missing, this has been recreated.
  • Other minor voids and some of the most distracting dirt and scratches have been replaced.
  • Exposure and light balance are left unchanged.
