he first thing you see as you enter the Victoria and Albert’s newly expanded Photography Centre is a huge plate camera on a wooden tripod. It belonged to Henry Fox Talbot,
the founding father of British photography. In an adjacent glass case,
an array of his other cameras are on show alongside his notebooks and an
original copy of his photography book, The Pencil of Nature
. The
centre’s inaugural exhibition is Collecting Photography: From
Daguerreotype to Digital, but it is the process of photography that is
the intriguing subtext.
