在16年的时间里,卡梅隆创作了1200张照片-当摄影仍然需要巨大的木箱和肮脏的化学物质时,这可不是件容易的事(不过,她是个有钱的女士,不管她是多么放荡,她都有工作人员)。在这段时间里,卡梅隆重新定义了肖像摄影,就像以前定义的那样-在她的圈子里拍摄名人的亲密肖像,包括阿尔弗雷德·洛德·丁尼森(Alfred Lord Tennyson)、罗伯特·布朗宁(Robert Browning)、托马斯·卡莱尔(Thomas Carlyle)、查尔斯·达尔文(Charles达尔文)、安东尼·特罗洛普(Anthony Trolope)、天文学家约翰·赫谢尔爵士(Sir John Herschel),他可能曾使用过“她还再现了圣经、莎士比亚、神话和历史场景,这些情景或许已经不那么成熟了。
卡梅隆不仅对构图有着非凡的判断力,而且还具有很强的实验性,故意把镜头从焦点上移开,并在她的指纹上留下划痕和污点,以显示情感。她最著名的肖像画“伊阿古”-是一位意大利著名画家的模型的头像-非常现代,而不仅仅是因为他的颧骨高、摇滚明星的头发和胡茬。展览中还包括了给V号的有启发性的字母选择。
此次展览是庆祝卡梅伦成立200周年的一系列活动的一部分,其中还包括“朱莉娅·玛格丽特·卡梅伦:影响力与亲密”在科学博物馆的媒体空间。
In 1868, the V&A (then the South Kensington Museum) offered her two rooms to use as a studio. From there, photographer and museum built a lifelong working partnership

Cameron accepted irregularities in her photography, giving her works an earthy, extremely contemporary feel. Pictured left: Whisper of the Muse, 1865. Right: William Michael Rossetti, 1865. Courtesy Victoria and Albert Museum, London
