Two of the children are barefoot and perhaps play the role of Gypsies. Photography was the most realistic medium available in the 1850s, but many photographers chose to use it for other purposes - such as tableau-making and storytelling.","physicalDescription":"Sepia photograph, mounted on green card, showing three children and a fiddler beside an out-house.","artistMakerPerson":[{"name":{"text":"Hawarden, Clementina (Viscountess)","id":"A8493"},"association":{"text":"photographer","id":"AAT25687"},"note":""}],"artistMakerOrganisations":[],"artistMakerPeople":[],"materials":[{"text":"paper","id":"x30308"}],"techniques":[{"text":"albumen process","id":"AAT133274"}],"materialsAndTechniques":"Photograph","categories":[{"text":"Photographs","id":"THES48910"},{"text":"Portraits","id":"THES48906"},{"text":"Scotland","id":"THES262877"}],"styles":[{"text":"Victorian","id":"x29321"}],"collectionCode":{"text":"PDP","id":"THES48595"},"images":["2006AF3723"],"imageResolution":"high","galleryLocations":[{"current":{"text":"LVLF","id":"THES49656"},"free":"","case":"X","shelf":"33","box":"HXVII"}],"partTypes":[[{"text":"photograph","id":"AAT46300"}],[{"text":"albumen print","id":"AAT127121"}]],"contentWarnings":[{"apprise":"","note":""}],"placesOfOrigin":[{"place":{"text":"Dundrum","id":"x37949"},"association":{"text":"photographed","id":"x30151"},"note":""}],"productionDates":[{"date":{"text":"ca. 1859-1861","earliest":"1854-01-01","latest":"1863-12-31"},"association":{"text":"photographed","id":"x30151"},"note":""}],"associatedObjects":[],"creditLine":"Given by Lady Clementina Tottenham","dimensions":[{"dimension":"Height","value":"24","unit":"cm","qualifier":"","date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"part":"","note":""},{"dimension":"Width","value":"28.4","unit":"cm","qualifier":"","date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"part":"image","note":""}],"dimensionsNote":"","marksAndInscriptions":[],"objectHistory":"","historicalContext":"From departmental note\r\n\r\n'Clementina, Lady Hawarden (Untitled) Photographic Study (or) Study from Life (D.190) c.1859-c.1861 Dundrum House, grounds: Togge House: exterior:Florence Elizabeth (right profile), in fancy dress (peasant blouse, skirt and scarf), eyes down, barefoot, standing, hands folded on Lord Hawarden's right shoulder; Lord Hawarden, seated on up-ended barrel, playing fiddle; Clementina, in fancy dress (peasant blouse, skirt and scarf), eyes down, barefoot, standing on plank, left hand on hip; and unidentified young man (left profile), standing on plank, left hand on hip.

This was a popular theme in mid-19th century painting and photography. In the work of painters such as Millet and Jules Breton, farm work is presented as ritualized and endowed with spiritual qualities far removed from the reality of drudgery. In the work of the British photographer Henry Peach Robinson, renowned in the early 1860s for composite photograps such as Autumn and Bringing Home the May, idealized peasant life 1 represented by anonymous models. Lady Hawarden, however, made no attempt to disguise her models.'","briefDescription":"19thC; Hawarden C, D 190, Dundrum House, grounds, Florence Elizabeth, Lord Hawarden, Clementina, unidentified young man, c. 1859-61","bibliographicReferences":[{"reference":{"text":"","id":""},"details":"","free":"Literature:  Microfilm: 3.18.82"}],"production":"Reason For Production: Exhibition\nReason For Production: Retail","productionType":{"text":"Unlimited edition","id":"THES48868"},"contentDescription":"","contentPlaces":[{"text":"Dundrum","id":"x37949"}],"associatedPlaces":[],"contentPerson":[{"text":"Maude, Florence Elizabeth","id":"N3718"},{"text":"Hawarden, Cornwallis","id":"N3719"},{"text":"Maude, Clementina","id":"N3714"}],"associatedPerson":[],"contentOrganisations":[],"associatedOrganisations":[],"contentPeople":[],"associatedPeople":[],"contentEvents":[],"associatedEvents":[],"contentOthers":[],"contentConcepts":[],"contentLiteraryRefs":[],"galleryLabels":[],"partNumbers":["275-1947"],"accessionNumberNum":"275","accessionNumberPrefix":"","accessionYear":1947,"otherNumbers":[],"copyNumber":"","aspects":["WHOLE"],"assets":[],"recordModificationDate":"2025-04-12","recordCreationDate":"2004-02-13","availableToBook":false}}
