Fox Talbot is universally recognised as the father of modern
photography. His 'calotype' or 'Talbotype' process was the first
working photographic process to use the now familiar format of
negatives and positives. He was an ambitious man but his interests
spread far beyond the confines of photography and it was as a
mathematician that he was awarded first Membership and then
Fellowship of the Royal Society before the age of thirty-three. He
was an accomplished astronomer, a keen archaeologists and a fluent
master of Greek and Hebrew. He patented pioneering ideas for
internal combustion engines and as early as 1840 and through his
life was at the forefront of progressive scientific thinking in
England.
