AFTER HENRY PEACH ROBINSON. Scène d'Octobre: La jeune poitrinaire (An October Scene: The Young Consumptive), from "Le Journal Illustré" no. 34

Scène d'Octobre: La jeune poitrinaire (An October Scene: The Young Consumptive), from "Le Journal Illustré" no. 34. Artist: After Henry Peach Robinson (British, Ludlow, Shropshire 1830-1901 Tunbridge Wells, Kent). Dimensions: Image: 9 1/16 in. × 13 in. (23 × 33 cm)
Sheet: 10 5/8 × 14 3/4 in. (27 × 37.5 cm). Date: October 2-9, 1864.
This wood engraving reproduces a famous pictorial photograph constructed by Henry Peach Robinson in 1858. To portray the peaceful death of a young girl surrounded by her grieving family, Robinson skillfully combined five different negatives. Although imaginary, many contemporaries criticized the subject as too painful to be tastefully rendered by such a literal medium as photography. The controversy made Robinson the most famous photographer in England and a leader of the Pictorialist movement which advocated painterly effects. Wood engravings played a crucial part in circulating images in the nineteenth century, here in a French publication "Le Journal Illustré.".
