Note:  Born in Calcutta in 1815, Julia Margaret Cameron was one of the first widely influential women photographers, noted for her soft-focus closeups of famous Victorians taken at her home on the Isle of Wight.  Cameron began her photography at age 48 and made about 900 photographs over twelve years.  In addition to portraits, she made many allegorical and illustrative images. On January 26, 1879, Cameron died in Ceylon.
