Portrait of Jessie M. King by J. Craig Annan (autochrome).<\/em><\/p>\n I don’t recall having seen a photo of artist Jessie M. King prior to this so it’s an additional surprise to find one in colour. All these examples are from Colour Photography: and other recent developments of the art of the camera<\/a><\/em> (1908), one of the many books edited by Charles Holme from features in The Studio<\/em> magazine. Needless to say, not all the entries are colour but a number of the monochrome plates have their own qualities, such as that painterly effect which so many early photographers were eager to cultivate.

For a look at more recent attempts to match the effects of painting with the camera, see this piece<\/a> by Rick Poynor about the remarkable work of Saul Leiter.<\/p>\n A Tangle After a Storm by Walter Bennington.<\/em><\/p>\n A Late Winter Sun by Dr. H.
