Summary
[edit]| Description | Photograph of a woman in a pale dress by T & J Holroyd of Harrogate. The photographers were brothers Thomas Holroyd (1821–1904) and James Holroyd (c.1825–1874). Thomas was a portrait and landscape painter, and James was a photographer, both from Harrogate, North Yorkshire, England. Although they were both credited, it was James who took most of the photographs. The woman has been placed in a pose which was often used to conceal a pregnancy. That wasn't about keeping secrets - it was because in the 19th century many mothers died in childbirth and many babies died soon after birth - so there were no celebrations until after the birth. | ||||
