Artist
West London Photographic Company
West London Photographic Company is an Impressionism artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This 1860s London studio made formal portraits on glass plates during photography’s earliest decades. Their surviving image shows a subject posed in sharp focus against a plain backdrop, a style typical of early commercial portraiture. These pictures freeze a moment in time but leave the person’s story untold. See their portrait of a man up close and notice how the light catches the collar and the eyes.
