Renowned for Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, Lewis Carroll
(Charles Lutwidge Dodgson) was also one of the most important
amateur photographers of the Victorian era and the period’s
finest photographer of children. From 1856 to 1880, Carroll took
around three thousand pictures, the majority of which were
portraits of family, friends, and colleagues. He also sought out
and photographed celebrities of the day, including Alfred Tennyson,
Samuel Wilberforce, Michael Faraday, William Holman Hunt, Henry
Taylor, George MacDonald, Dante Gabriel Rossetti, Christina
Rossetti, Ellen Terry, John Everett Millais, Charlotte Yonge, and
Prince Leopold. Carroll’s remaining output includes images of
landscapes and architecture, works of art, and skeletons; assisted
self-portraits; and other miscellaneous pictures. Today, his
photographs are highly prized and fetch enormous prices at auction.
This catalogue raisonné presents images of the nearly one thousand
surviving photographs of Lewis Carroll—including many from
private collections that have never been published—and provides
information on their subjects/sitters, their locations, and the
dates when they were taken, as well as extracts from Carroll’s
private diaries that mention his relevant photographic activity and
background information concerning known prints. Edward Wakeling, an
internationally recognized Carrollian scholar, has also
reconstructed Carroll’s lost register of his complete
photographic opus. In addition to the catalogue, Wakeling discusses
Carroll’s activity as a photographer, his contacts with other
Victorian art photographers, and his nude studies, and he provides
a full listing of the contents of Carroll’s various photographic
albums. This is the most comprehensive study of Carroll’s
photography ever produced, and it will be a standard work for
anyone studying Victorian photography and for Lewis Carroll’s
photographs in particular.
