About this work

Julia Margaret Cameron took a photo of Ellen Terry in 1864. The actress posed during a visit to the Isle of Wight. This was new at the time—people didn’t often see photos of actors. Cameron sold prints of the picture. She used a process that kept the image from fading. Fans could buy them just like postcards today. Check out Cameron’s other portraits at the Victoria and Albert Museum.
