EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grandeur of Carclew House in August 1841, showcasing the architectural brilliance of this 19th-century stately home. Created by the pioneering photographer William Henry Fox Talbot, this calotype negative showcases his mastery in capturing both buildings and people. The image features a magnificent terrace adorned with an elegant balustrade, adding to the regal charm of Carclew House.
