FORMAT: STEREOGRAPHS

 

Ver.:  Oct. 21, 2020

 

PURPOSE:

--This is a quick guide to identify specific stereos and photographers whose works have been reviewed in contemporary photographic journals.  Many of the reviews provide titles and photographer’s image numbers.  As images were reviewed soon after publication, they provide reasonable dates for the photographs.

--This list is arranged by year, and then alphabetically by photographer’s name (or relevant identifier if photographer is not noted), and then chronologically.

 

NOTES:

-- Images reviewed or noted here are, for the most part, stereos, or assumed to be stereo although that may not be the case.  In some cases other sizes have been included as related images may also have been issued as stereos.  This is certainly true for Francis Bedford and George Washington Wilson.  When images are known to have been stereos, this is noted; if non-stereo and known, sizes will be noted. 

--Full transcriptions have been made for many major reviews, ads, etc., but NOT for everything.  Those for which full text is available are marked “[Transcribed]” and the text can be located under the section:  BRITISH TRANSCRIPTIONS. 

--Transcription and indexing are active.  Updates will be made on a regular basis.  The latest version of this document is marked with a date at the beginning.

--This list is selective and while every effort has been made to capture relevant material about stereographs, it should not be considered complete. 

 

-- Reviews of exhibitions are excluded as are items shown at meetings unless a review was a significant portion of a meeting.   References to those items will be cross-referenced in transcripts and many of the exhibition images has already been referenced by Roger Taylor. RECHECK specific listings to those referenced by Taylor.  EDITORIAL DISCRETION:  – specific items from articles, obits., exhibitions, meetings, etc. may be listed if I think the info. will be useful.

-- Ads are included when they are located

--Exact titles, or those that appear to be exact titles, are in quotes.  When only the subject is known, it is not in quotes although it may very well also be the title.

--Descriptions – go back to original publication for more details although some descriptions have  been included to help identify views

--Order:  When one photographer’s work is reviewed several times, they are entered in chronological order

-- News of note – newsworthy incidences such as fires, obituaries, are noted; minor notices of works w/o any information are frequently omitted unless they help to date a series.

            The Story of Little Red Riding Hood.  Four photos.

 

2.  Oct. 1, 1858: L&MPJ: Article:

            Little Red Riding Hood series:

            # 1 “Her mother having one day made some cakes, said to little Red Riding Hood, ‘I hear

                        your poor old grandma has been ailing, so, prithee, go and see if she be any better,

and take her these cakes and a little pot of butter.” = Here is the child, with hood

ready donned, and basket in hand, receiving the cakes from her mother.  Homely

cottage with warming pan, bird cage, salt box, rope of onions, etc.  Mother looks

too young.

            #2  “In about an hour Red Riding Hood came and tapped at the door.  ‘Who is there?’

said the Wolf.’  ‘It is me. Your own little grandchild,’ the artless little girl replied,

‘I have brought you some nice cakes and a little pot of butter.’  The Wolf,

softening his voice as much as he could, said, ‘Pull the bobbin, and the latch will

go up.’ ” = Arrived at the cottage door, adorned by ‘the tendrils of a purple vine’

stands the little maid, with frock tucked up and hood a little thrown back, socks

slipping down, the hand raised to pull the bobbin, face expressive of expectation

and pleasure.

            #3  “Little Red Riding Hood then went and drew back the curtain, when she was much

surprised to see how oddly her grandmother looked in her nightclothes!” –

difficult to hold expression of astonishment when taking photo.

            #4  “Little Red Riding Hood hastened home to tell her mother all that has befallen her;

nor did she forget that night to thank heaven fervently for having delivered her

from the jaws of the wolf” = Again at the cottage w/ little girl in night dress at

mother’s knee. Bkgd same as #1 but remains of frugal mean are on the table.

12.  Sept. 1, 1862:  Photo. Notes: 

Have received set of stereo views of the Inundation in the Fens.  None of the views are mentioned but the label has been quoted in full!:

            “The Inundations in the Fens.—A brief description of the present inundations may not be considered out of place here.  A glance at the Map of England will show an immense district lying between the hilly parts of Norfolk and Lincolnshire, and extending across the northern part of Cambridgeshire.  This large area is intersected in various directions by drains or artificial rivers, the object of which is to carry off the superabundant waters into the natural or tidal rivers.  A hasty glance at this district, during a rapid journey by rail, will at once reveal its noteworthy characteristics.  A vast plain presents itself to the eye, with nothing to break the monotony, but an occasional farm house, or a row of stunted willows, with here and there the tall shaft of some engine busily employed in throwing the water from the drains, into the regular channels leading to the rivers.  The whole of this district has been reclaimed from the seas in comparatively recent times, and as consequently it is all below high water mark, the outlets into the rivers are guarded by sluices that have hitherto been considered models of engineering skill.  They are constructed to let off the upland waters, but to prevent the tide from entering.  The cause of the present calamity is the bursting of the latest of these magnificent erections--the sluice built at St. German’s, where the middle level drain empties its waters into the Ouse.  This drain was formed some sixteen years ago, to carry off the water of an inland sea called Whittlesea Mere, and has been so successful in its operation that, the whole area of the old sea is now under cultivation.  The scheme was however strongly opposed by the landholders in Marshland Fen, the scene of the present inundations, for the drain came across their lands, putting them to serious inconvenience without any corresponding benefit, for it did not drain their land in the slightest degree.  At the time of the formation of the drain, we remember an old man saying, “They will have no difficulty in draining Whittlesea Mere, but the day will come, mary my words, when they will have a Marshland Mere instead.”  This prediction, though laughed at at the time, has now come to pass, for on the breaking of the sluice which guarded the outlet, the tidal waters rushed into the drain and filled it from bank to bank.  Every one saw that the banks could not sustain the extras pressure, for the drain was in the position of a basin, so full, that another drop must make it run over.  At the weakest point accordingly the water spurted through like the steam from the hose of a fire engine, and in a short space of time there was a gap a hundred feet across, and a torrent of water rushing over the unfortunate land, and a district of six miles long by three and four broad, which a few weeks ago might be considered as the most fertile in England, is now a salt water lake four feet deep.” 

There follows on the label, lines from Tennyson: 

“A lowly cottage, whence we see,  Stretched wide and wild, the waste enormous march, Where from the frequent bridge, Like emblems of infinity, The trenched waters run from sky to sky.”
