An Autochrome Of Two Sisters, 1908
Another shot taken by Etheldreda Janet Laing. An autochrome of two sisters, daughters of the photographer, together in a garden on a hot summer’s day. The family home where these pictures were taken was known as Bury Knowle.
Apan (Young Samurai), 1912
This is another shot from the collection commissioned by Albert Kahn. Here we can see a young man dressed as a Samurai. Samurais were the hereditary military nobility and officer caste of medieval and early-modern Japan from the 12th century to their abolition in the 1870s.
