What is Sun pictures : the Hill-Adamson calotypes about?
In 1843 painter David Octavius Hill joined engineer Robert Adamson to form Scotland's first photographic studio. During their brief partnership that ended with Adamson's untimely death, Hill & Adamson produced "the first substantial body of self-consciously artistic work using the newly invented medium of photography." Sun pictures is an early and perceptive insight into Hill & Adamson's work.
