Aratus is a 1855 photographic by Roger Fenton, a Impressionism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This is a black-and-white photo of a stone bust. The man has a thick beard and curly hair, looking serious with a slight frown. He’s wearing a simple draped cloth over his shoulders, and the bust sits on a small pedestal. The photo itself is old-fashioned, with a plain background. The lighting is even, showing the texture of the stone clearly. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more works like this.
A sepia-toned photograph from 1855 by Roger Fenton shows a bust of an elderly man with a beard, his chest exposed by an open robe, positioned on a table.
