Ten photographic views of England and Scotland
Est: $500 - $800
Heading: Author: Valentine, James Title: Ten albumen photographs of country grand estate architecture and interiors Place Published: Dundee, Scotland Publisher:James Valentine Date Published: Various dates Description: 10 albumen photographs. Approx. 17.8x28 cm or vice versa (7x11"). Captioned in negative. Matted. James Valentine was a Scottish photographer. Valentine's of Dundee produced Scottish topographical views from the 1860s, and later became internationally famous as the producers of picture postcards. The business Valentine & Sons Ltd was founded in Dundee in 1851 by James Valentine. He added portrait photography to the activities of his established Dundee business, which had been based up to 1851 on the engraving, printing and supply of business stationery. In 1855 he erected one of the largest photographic glasshouses in Britain. About 1860, he decided to emulate the success of George Washington Wilson in Aberdeen in selling topographical view photographs. In 1866 Valentine carried out his first Royal commission and received the Royal warrant in 1867. Valentine views in the nineteenth century aimed at the national middle and upper class tourist market, with the production of both drawing room albums containing selections of photographs arranged geographically and individual landscape prints. They competed with Francis Frith and George Washington Wilson, who were producing pictures of similar quality.
