Summary
[edit]DescriptionTorquay, Babbacombe Bay, from the Inn (8448461592).jpg | Creator: Francis Bedford (1816 - 1894) Date: c. 1880 Format: Albumen print Collection: National Media Museum Collection Inventory no: 1990-5037_B1_0065 A photographic view of Babbacombe Bay, Torquay, published by Francis Bedford & Co, in about 1880. Francis Bedford (1816 - 1894) was a prolific and well-respected photographer of the mid-19th century. He is best known for his numerous topographic and architectural views of Britain. In 1857 Bedford became a member of the Photographic Society and in 1862 he was invited to accompany the Prince of Wales, the future Edward VII (1841 - 1910), as official photographer on a tour of the Middle East. During the 1860s and 1870s Bedford travelled extensively throughout Britain, taking hundreds of views of British scenery. He was assisted by his son, William (1846 - 1893) whose work is almost indistinguishable from that of his father. From the 1870s onwards, William seems to have assumed responsibility for running the family business and many photographs of this later period are more likely to be the work of William rather than that of his father. |
