Portfolio of Pictures by A. Horsley Hinton is a 1901 photographic by Alfred Horsley Hinton, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This photo shows a quiet river winding through grassy banks. Trees line the far side, and a small house sits back in the trees. The sky is soft and gray, with no sharp lines. The artist used light and dark to make the scene feel calm. The river looks still, like it’s barely moving. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum for more works like this.
A brown-toned photographic view is mounted, depicting a scene over water toward a landscape of trees.

Alfred Horsley Hinton carried a wooden camera like a second body—he lugged it up British hills, through misty valleys and mill towns, always hunting the perfect soft light over water.
